Abstract
A computer-implemented method for explaining a classification of one or more classifier inputs by a trained classifier. A generative model is used that generates inputs for the trained classifier. The generative model comprises multiple filters. Generator inputs corresponding to the one or more classifier inputs are obtained, where a generator input causes the generative model to approximately generate the corresponding classifier input. Filter suppression factors are determined for the multiple filters of the generative model. A filter suppression factor for a filter indicates a degree of suppression for a filter output of the filter. The filter suppression factors are determined based on an effect of adapting the classifier inputs according to the filter suppression factors on the classification by the trained classifier. The classification explanation is based on the filter suppression factors.
