Evidence Faithfulness Evaluation System

An Evidence Faithfulness Evaluation System is an evaluation system that is an explainability assessment system implementing faithfulness testing algorithms to solve evidence faithfulness evaluation tasks.

• AKA: Faithfulness Testing System, Evidence Alignment Verifier.
• Context:
  • It can typically implement Perturbation Modules for evidence ablation.
  • It can typically execute Sensitivity Analysises on model predictions.
  • It can typically perform Counterfactual Tests with modified evidence.
  • It can typically generate Faithfulness Reports with quantitative scores.
  • It can typically support Batch Evaluation across multiple models.
  • ...
  • It can often incorporate Automated Test Suites for systematic evaluation.
  • It can often use Statistical Significance Tests for result validation.
  • It can often implement Visualization Tools for faithfulness analysis.
  • It can often provide Diagnostic Feedback for model improvement.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Stand-alone Faithfulness System to being an Integrated Faithfulness System, depending on its deployment mode.
  • It can range from being a Generic Faithfulness System to being a Task-Specific Faithfulness System, depending on its specialization level.
  • ...
  • It can process Model Predictions with evidence annotations.
  • It can output Faithfulness Scores with detailed breakdowns.
  • It can integrate with Model Development Pipelines for continuous evaluation.
  • It can support Interpretability Research Platforms.
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • ERASER Evaluation Framework implementing comprehensiveness and sufficiency tests.
  • LIME Faithfulness Tester comparing local explanations with model behavior.
  • Attention Faithfulness Analyzer testing attention weight correlation.
  • Gradient-Based Faithfulness System using integrated gradients.
  • Human-in-the-Loop Faithfulness Platform combining automatic and manual evaluations.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Accuracy Evaluation Systems, which test prediction correctness not faithfulness.
  • Performance Benchmarking Systems, which measure speed not interpretability.
  • Data Quality Systems, which assess input quality not evidence alignment.
