Abstract
Provided are an apparatus and method for linearly approximating a deep neural network (DNN) model which is a non-linear function. In general, a DNN model shows good performance in generation or classification tasks. However, the DNN fundamentally has non-linear characteristics, and therefore it is difficult to interpret how a result from inputs given to a black box model has been derived. To solve this problem, linear approximation of a DNN is proposed. The method for linearly approximating a DNN model includes 1) converting a neuron constituting a DNN into a polynomial, and 2) classifying the obtained polynomial as a polynomial of input signals and a polynomial of weights.
