Automatic xai (autoxai) with evolutionary nas techniques and model discovery and refinement

Abstract

An exemplary model search may provide optimal explainable models based on a dataset. An exemplary embodiment may identify features from a training dataset, and may map feature costs to the identified features. The search space may be sampled to generate initial or seed candidates, which may be chosen based on one or more objectives and/or constraints. The candidates may be iteratively optimized until an exit condition is met. The optimization may be performed by an external optimizer. The external optimizer may iteratively apply constraints to the candidates to quantify a fitness level of each of the seed candidates. The fitness level may be based on the constraints and objectives. The candidates may be a set of data, or may be trained to form explainable models. The external optimizer may optimize the explainable models until the exit conditions are met.
