Figure 1: A ProtoTree is a globally interpretable model faithfully explaining its entire reasoning (left, partially shown).Additionally, the decision making process for a single prediction can be followed (right): the presence of a red chest and black wing, and the absence of a black stripe near the eye, identifies a Scarlet Tanager. A pruned ProtoTree learns roughly 200 prototypes for CUB (dataset with 200 bird species), making only 8 local decisions on average for one test image.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
