Abstract
Deep learning models are proficient at predicting target classes, but they need to explain their predictions.Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) offers a promising solution by providing both transparency and object detection capabilities to classification models.Mask detection plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and well-being of individuals by preventing the spread of infectious diseases.A new visual XAI method called HayCAM+ is proposed to address the limitations of the previous method known as HayCAM, such as the need to select the number of filters as a hyper-parameter and the use of fully-connected layers.When object detection is performed using activation maps created via various methods, including GradCAM, EigenCAM, GradCAM++, LayerCAM, HayCAM, and HayCAM+, it is found that HayCAM+ provides the best results with an IoU score of 0.3740 (GradCAM: 0.

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
