Proceedings of the 27th ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery & Data Mining, 2021 An increasing number of machine learning models have been deployed in domains with high stakes such as finance and healthcare. Despite their superior performances, many models are black boxes in nature which are hard to explain. There are growing efforts for researchers to develop methods to interpret these black-box models. Post hoc explanations based
