Reliable Modeling of Distribution Shifts via Displacement-Reshaped Optimal Transport

Philip Naumann, Jacob Kauffmann, Klaus-Robert Müller +1

Optimal transport (OT) is a central framework for modeling distribution shifts. Because OT compares distributions directly in input space, a well-designed ground metric between obs…

Fast and Accurate Explanations of Distance-Based Classifiers by Uncovering Latent Explanatory Structures

Florian Bley, Jacob Kauffmann, Simon León Krug +2

Distance-based classifiers, such as k-nearest neighbors and support vector machines, continue to be a workhorse of machine learning, widely used in science and industry. In practic…

Wasserstein Distances Made Explainable: Insights Into Dataset Shifts and Transport Phenomena

Philip Naumann, Jacob Kauffmann, Grégoire Montavon

Wasserstein distances provide a powerful framework for comparing data distributions. They can be used to analyze processes over time or to detect inhomogeneities within data. Howev…

The Clever Hans Effect in Unsupervised Learning

Jacob Kauffmann, Jonas Dippel, Lukas Ruff +3

Unsupervised learning has become an essential building block of AI systems. The representations it produces, e.g. in foundation models, are critical to a wide variety of downstream…

The Clever Hans Effect in Anomaly Detection

Jacob Kauffmann, Lukas Ruff, Grégoire Montavon +1

The 'Clever Hans' effect occurs when the learned model produces correct predictions based on the 'wrong' features. This effect which undermines the generalization capability of an…

From Clustering to Cluster Explanations via Neural Networks

Jacob Kauffmann, Malte Esders, Lukas Ruff +3

A recent trend in machine learning has been to enrich learned models with the ability to explain their own predictions. The emerging field of Explainable AI (XAI) has so far mainly…
