Question

You are using Vertex AI and TensorFlow to develop a custom image classification model. You need the model's decisions and the rationale to be understandable to your company's stakeholders. You also want to explore the results to identify any issues or potential biases. What should you do?

Options

  • A
    1. Use TensorFlow to generate and visualize features and statistics.
  • B
    1. Use TensorFlow Profiler to visualize the model execution.
  • C
    1. Use Vertex Explainable AI to generate example-based explanations.
  • D
    1. Use Vertex Explainable AI to generate feature attributions. Aggregate feature attributions over

Why each option

To make model decisions understandable and identify issues or biases in a custom image classification model, using Vertex Explainable AI to generate example-based explanations is effective.

A1. Use TensorFlow to generate and visualize features and statistics.

Generating and visualizing features and statistics with TensorFlow helps with data understanding, but doesn't directly explain *why* the model made a specific prediction or its rationale.

B1. Use TensorFlow Profiler to visualize the model execution.

TensorFlow Profiler helps in optimizing model training performance by visualizing execution, but it does not provide explanations for the model's predictions or help identify biases.

C1. Use Vertex Explainable AI to generate example-based explanations.Correct

Vertex Explainable AI's example-based explanations help stakeholders understand the model's rationale by showing similar examples from the training data, making decisions more interpretable and useful for identifying potential biases or issues, especially for image classification.

D1. Use Vertex Explainable AI to generate feature attributions. Aggregate feature attributions over

While Vertex Explainable AI's feature attributions are useful for understanding feature importance, example-based explanations often provide more intuitive insights into *why* an image was classified a certain way for stakeholders and identifying specific decision issues.
