TSEM: Temporally Weighted Spatiotemporal Explainable Neural Network for Multivariate Time Series
(2022)
Deep learning has become a one-size-fits-all solution for technical and business domains thanks to its flexibility and adaptability. It is implemented using opaque models, which unfortunately undermines the outcome trustworthiness. In order to have a better understanding of the behavior of a system, particularly one driven by time series, a look inside a deep learning model so-called posthoc eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) approaches, is important. There are two major types of XAI for time series data, namely model-agnostic and model-specific. Model-specific approach is considered in this work. While other approaches employ either Class Activation Mapping (CAM) or Attention Mechanism, we merge the two strategies into a single system, simply called the Temporally Weighted Spatiotemporal Explainable Neural Network for Multivariate Time Series (TSEM). TSEM combines the capabilities of RNN and CNN models in such a way that RNN hidden units are employed as attention weights for the CNN feature maps temporal axis. The result shows that TSEM outperforms XCM. It is similar to STAM in terms of accuracy, while also satisfying a number of interpretability criteria, including causality, fidelity, and spatiotemporality.
This paper presents the b-it-bots RoboCup@Work team and its current hardware and functional architecture for the KUKA youBot robot. We describe the underlying software framework and the developed capabilities required for operating in industrial environments including features such as reliable and precise navigation, flexible manipulation, robust object recognition and task planning. New developments include an approach to grasp vertical objects, placement of objects by considering the empty space on a workstation, and the process of porting our code to ROS2.
