Same Predictions, Different Reasons: The Effect of Quantization on Model Explanations

arXiv:2607. 22872v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) has become a practical solution for deploying deep learning models on resource-constrained edge devices by compressing high-precision floating-point weights into low-precision representations without requiring retraining.

Det-LIME: Detector-Aware, Multi-Instance Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations for Automated Marine Mammal Detection

Det‑LIME is a detector‑aware, multi‑instance adaptation of LIME designed to explain black‑box object detectors used in marine mammal research. It generates instance‑specific, box‑aligned explanations by weighting detections, applying a proximity kernel, and using IoU‑based matching to track instances across perturbations. Evaluated on aerial drone imagery of harbor seals and a seabird case study, Det‑LIME outperformed vanilla LIME, Stabilized LIME, Deterministic LIME, and gradient‑based methods in Attribution Ratio and Max Saliency Hit Rate, offering higher‑resolution, instance‑aware explanations that aid debugging, data augmentation, and modeling improvements.

Same Predictions, Different Reasons: The Effect of Quantization on Model Explanations

Post-training quantization (PTQ) has become a practical solution for deploying deep learning models on resource-constrained edge devices by compressing high-precision floating-point weights into low-precision representations without requiring retraining. Past research has demonstrated that quantization largely preserves classification accuracy; however, whether it also preserves the model's internal reasoning remains an open question.
