While the performance of DNNs is outstanding, their opaque nature raises a growing concern in the community, causing suspicions on the reliability and trustworthiness of decisions made by DNNs. In order to release such concerns and towards building reliable deep learning systems, research efforts are actively made in diverse aspects such as model interpretation, model fairness and bias, adversarial attacks and defenses, and so on.In this dissertation, we focus on the research topic of DNN interpretations for visual intelligence, aiming to unfold the black-box and provide explanations for visual intelligence tasks in a human-understandable way. We first conduct a categorized literature review, systematically introducing the realm of explainable deep learning. Following the review, two specific problems are tackled, explanations of Convolutions Neural Networks (CNNs), which relates the CNN decisions with input concepts, and interpretability of multi-model interactions, where an explainable model is built to solve a visual inference task. Visualization techniques are leveraged to depict the intermediate hidden states of CNNs and attention mechanisms are utilized to build an instinct explainable model. Towards increasing the trustworthiness of DNNs, a certainty measurement for decisions is also proposed as an extensive exploration of this study. To show how the introduced techniques holistically realize a contribution to interpretable and reliable deep neural networks for visual intelligence, further experiments and analyses are conducted for visual entailment task at the end of this dissertation. 2020-08-06 English text Wright State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=wright1596208422672732 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=wright1596208422672732 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
