Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deploy the scaffolding attack | LIME · COMPAS | fidelity_g: 0.31 -> 0.23 | Hurt |
| Use KNNCAD to filter abnormal perturbations during explanation | LIME · COMPAS, attack with N_hl=1 | fidelity_DEFENSE,f: 0.23 -> 0.30 | Helped |
| Use KNNCAD to filter abnormal perturbations during explanation | LIME · German Credit, attack | fidelity_DEFENSE,f: 0.18 -> 0.27 | Helped |
| Use KNNCAD to filter abnormal perturbations during explanation | LIME · Communities & Crime, attack with N_hl=1 | fidelity_DEFENSE,f: 0.16 -> 0.20 | Helped |
| Deploy the scaffolding attack | SHAP · German Credit | fidelity_g: 0.24 -> 0.12 | Hurt |
| Use KNNCAD to filter abnormal perturbations during explanation | SHAP · German Credit, attack | fidelity_DEFENSE,f: 0.12 -> 0.27 | Helped |
| Use KNNCAD to filter abnormal perturbations during explanation | SHAP · Communities & Crime, attack with N_hl=1 | fidelity_DEFENSE,f: 0.07 -> 0.19 | Helped |
| Use KNNCAD with DETECT to compare anomaly-score distributions for natural and perturbed samples | LIME and SHAP · All evaluated datasets | attack detection | Helped |
| Increase the number of explainer perturbations above 1,000 | DETECT with LIME or SHAP · COMPAS | detection-score variance: n_p > 1,000 | Helped |
| Increase the KNN neighbor count k (ablation) | KNNCAD / DETECT · Communities & Crime | attack-detection margin | Hurt |
| Use SHAP's perturbation scheme instead of LIME's (ablation) | DETECT · Communities & Crime | attack-detection margin: ~5× | Helped |
