Mechanisms¶
- Feature Ablation or Occlusion Test
- And like any attribution, an occlusion map can be run backwards — the cue and mask chosen after the fact to produce the saliency picture someone wanted.
This sourceShows that six post-hoc explanation methods—not occlusion maps—can be manipulated toward arbitrary target maps with hardly perceptible input perturbations while model output remains approximately constant.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
