FCx is a new algorithm that generates counterfactual explanations while explicitly enforcing feasibility constraints. It uses a modified Variational Autoencoder with a multi‑factor loss to produce realistic, low‑cost counterfactuals that satisfy both hard constraints supplied by users and soft constraints inferred via causal inference. Experiments on four public datasets demonstrate that FCx matches state‑of‑the‑art performance across multiple metrics while guaranteeing feasibility.

Counterfactual explanations (CFEs) enhance the interpretability of black-box models by generating alternative instances with adjusted feature values that achieve a contrastive outcome. Reinforcement learning (RL) offers a promising approach for CFE generation, enabling efficient exploration of counterfactual instances while ensuring control over key metrics like validity, sparsity, and proximity.
