|
Julia implementation of Layerwise Relevance Propagation (LRP) and Concept Relevance Propagation (CRP) for use with Flux.jl models.
This package is part of the Julia-XAI ecosystem and compatible with ExplainableAI.jl.
Installation
This package supports Julia ≥1.10. To install it, open the Julia REPL and run
julia-repl
julia> ]add RelevancePropagation
Example
Let's use LRP to explain why an image of a castle gets classified as such using a pre-trained VGG16 model from Metalhead.jl:

```julia using RelevancePropagation using VisionHeatmaps # visualization of explanations as heatmaps using Flux, Metalhead # pre-trained vision models in Flux using DataAugmentation # input preprocessing using HTTP, FileIO, ImageIO # load image from URL using ImageInTerminal # show heatmap in terminal
Load & prepare model
model = VGG(16, pretrain=true).layers model = strip_softmax(model) model = canonize(model)
Load input
url = HTTP.URI("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Julia-XAI/ExplainableAI.jl/gh-pages/assets/heatmaps/castle.jpg") img = load(url)
Preprocess input
mean = (0.485f0, 0.456f0, 0.406f0) std = (0.229f0, 0.224f0, 0.225f0) tfm = CenterResizeCrop((224, 224)) |> ImageToTensor() |> Normalize(mean, std) input = apply(tfm, Image(img)) # apply DataAugmentation transform input = reshape(input.data, 224, 224, 3, :) # unpack data and add batch dimension
Run XAI method
composite = EpsilonPlusFlat() analyzer = LRP(model, composite) expl = analyze(input, analyzer) # or: expl = analyzer(input) heatmap(expl) # show heatmap using VisionHeatmaps.jl ```
We can also get an explanation for the activation of the output neuron
corresponding to the "street sign" class by specifying the corresponding output neuron position 920:
julia
analyze(input, analyzer, 920)
Heatmaps for all implemented analyzers are shown in the following table. Red color indicate regions of positive relevance towards the selected class, whereas regions in blue are of negative relevance.
| Analyzer | Heatmap for class "castle" |Heatmap for class "street sign" |
