A Fresh Look at Sanity Checks for Saliency Maps
The Model Parameter Randomisation Test (MPRT) is highly recognised in the eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) community due to its fundamental evaluative criterion: explanations should be sensitive to the parameters of the model they seek to explain.

Sanity Checks Revisited: An Exploration to Repair the Model Parameter Randomisation Test
The Model Parameter Randomisation Test (MPRT) is widely acknowledged in the eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) community for its well-motivated evaluative principle: that the explanation function should be sensitive to changes in the parameters of the model function.

Layer-wise Feedback Propagation
In this paper, we present Layer-wise Feedback Propagation (LFP), a novel training approach for neural-network-like predictors that utilizes explainability, specifically Layer-wise Relevance Propagation(LRP), to assign rewards to individual connections based on their respective contributions to solving a given task.
Shortcomings of Top-Down Randomization-Based Sanity Checks for Evaluations of Deep Neural Network Explanations
To address shortcomings of this test, we start by observing an experimental gap in the ranking of explanation methods between randomization-based sanity checks [1] and model output faithfulness measures (e. g. [25]).
Explain to Not Forget: Defending Against Catastrophic Forgetting with XAI
The ability to continuously process and retain new information like we do naturally as humans is a feat that is highly sought after when training neural networks.
Beyond Explaining: Opportunities and Challenges of XAI-Based Model Improvement
We conclude that while model improvement based on XAI can have significant beneficial effects even on complex and not easily quantifyable model properties, these methods need to be applied carefully, since their success can vary depending on a multitude of factors, such as the model and dataset used, or the employed explanation method.

Measurably Stronger Explanation Reliability via Model Canonization
While rule-based attribution methods have proven useful for providing local explanations for Deep Neural Networks, explaining modern and more varied network architectures yields new challenges in generating trustworthy explanations, since the established rule sets might not be sufficient or applicable to novel network structures.
Quantus: An Explainable AI Toolkit for Responsible Evaluation of Neural Network Explanations and Beyond
The evaluation of explanation methods is a research topic that has not yet been explored deeply, however, since explainability is supposed to strengthen trust in artificial intelligence, it is necessary to systematically review and compare explanation methods in order to confirm their correctness.
Navigating Neural Space: Revisiting Concept Activation Vectors to Overcome Directional Divergence
With a growing interest in understanding neural network prediction strategies, Concept Activation Vectors (CAVs) have emerged as a popular tool for modeling human-understandable concepts in the latent space.
Understanding Integrated Gradients with SmoothTaylor for Deep Neural Network Attribution
From our experiments, we find that the SmoothTaylor approach together with adaptive noising is able to generate better quality saliency maps with lesser noise and higher sensitivity to the relevant points in the input space as compared to Integrated Gradients.
Finding and Removing Clever Hans: Using Explanation Methods to Debug and Improve Deep Models
Based on a recent technique - Spectral Relevance Analysis - we propose the following technical contributions and resulting findings: (a) a scalable quantification of artifactual and poisoned classes where the machine learning models under study exhibit CH behavior, (b) several approaches denoted as Class Artifact Compensation (ClArC), which are able to effectively and significantly reduce a model's CH behavior.
