Harmonic LLMs are Trustworthy

Nicholas S. Kersting, Mohammad Rahman, Suchismitha Vedala +1

We introduce an intuitive method to test the robustness (stability and explainability) of any black-box LLM in real-time via its local deviation from harmoniticity, denoted as .…

ONNXExplainer: an ONNX Based Generic Framework to Explain Neural Networks Using Shapley Values

Yong Zhao, Runxin He, Nicholas Kersting +4

Understanding why a neural network model makes certain decisions can be as important as the inference performance. Various methods have been proposed to help practitioners explain…
