A Comparative Explainability Framework for DeBERTa-v3 in Zero-Shot Medical Abstract Classification

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.02116v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A comparative explainability framework is presented to audit DeBERTa-v3 under zero-shot classification of medical abstracts. The work addresses the disagreement problem in Explainable Artificial Intelligence, where different attribution methods produce divergent explanations for the same input and prediction. A natural language inference engine is implemented over the Medical Abstracts corpus with five enriched hypotheses per diagnostic category and a balanced sample of one thousand texts per class. Five explanation methods are compared: SHAP and LIME as model-agnostic approaches, occlusion and Input x Gradient as deep-learning-specific approaches, and Attention x Gradient as a transformer-specific approach. Explanations are standardized thro
