Abstract
With the rapid development of deep learning models, their performances in various tasks have improved; meanwhile, their increasingly intricate architectures make them difficult to interpret. To tackle this challenge, model interpretability is essential and has been investigated in a wide range of applications. For end users, model interpretability can be used to build trust in the deployed machine learning models. For practitioners, interpretability plays a critical role in model explanation, model validation, and model improvement to develop a faithful model. In this paper, we propose a novel Multi-scale Interpretation (MINT) model for convolutional neural networks using both the perturbation-based and the gradient-based interpretation approaches. It learns the class-discriminative interpretable knowledge from the multi-scale perturbation of feature information in different layers of deep networks. The proposed MINT model provides the coarse-scale and the fine-scale interpretations for the attention in the deep layer and specific features in the shallow layer, respectively. Experimental results show that the MINT model presents the class-discriminative interpretation of the network decision and explains the significance of the hierarchical network structure.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
