The paper introduces a new framework for generating medical image counterfactuals that does not rely on auxiliary generative models. By extracting causal evidence directly from a classifier, the method deterministically produces edits within user-specified regions, requiring no additional training. Experiments on real-world medical imaging datasets show that these counterfactuals alter classifier predictions while staying closer to the original image than generative baselines, offering a clearer view of the model’s decision boundary.

The paper introduces a new method for generating medical image counterfactuals that does not rely on auxiliary generative models. By extracting causal evidence directly from the classifier, the approach deterministically edits user-specified regions to alter predictions while staying closer to the original image than generative baselines. Experiments on real-world medical imaging datasets show that this technique provides a more direct and transparent view of the classifier’s decision boundary.
The paper introduces a classifier‑free method for generating visual counterfactual explanations (VCEs) using Contrastive Analysis (CA). By separating generative factors common to two datasets from those specific to each class, the approach swaps only the salient factors to produce counterfactual images, thereby avoiding reliance on classifier decision boundaries. Leveraging StyleGAN2’s high‑quality synthesis and a feature‑space latent representation, the method supports multiple salient factors per dataset and achieves superior counterfactual quality on three medical imaging datasets.
