SSI attributes multispectral importance per position via conditional Shapley values

Haotian Ma · hf · 2026-10-22

Spectral-Spatial Interpretation (SSI) from UW-Madison is a full-grid attribution method for multispectral data: for each spatial position, it fixes surrounding context, defines a conditional game over channels, and applies Shapley values — producing a full spectral-spatial attribution matrix instead of a single heatmap or global channel ranking. SSI satisfies Shapley fairness locally, has clear local interpretations, and outperforms existing attribution methods on multispectral image tasks.
