Alexander Mattick joins me to discuss the paper "Neural Networks are Decision Trees", which has generated a lot of hype on social media. We ask the question: Has this paper solved one of the large mysteries of deep learning and opened the black-box neural networks up to interpretability?

OUTLINE:

8:00 - How large do these trees get?

11:50 - Decision Trees vs Neural Networks

17:15 - Is this paper new?

22:20 - Experimental results

27:30 - Can Trees and Networks work together?

Paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.05189

Abstract:

In this manuscript, we show that any feedforward neural network having piece-wise linear activation functions can be represented as a decision tree. The representation is equivalence and not an approximation, thus keeping the accuracy of the neural network exactly as is. We believe that this work paves the way to tackle the black-box nature of neural networks. We share equivalent trees of some neural networks and show that besides providing interpretability, tree representation can also achieve some computational advantages. The analysis holds both for fully connected and convolutional networks, which may or may not also include skip connections and/or normalizations.
