Extracting automata from neural networks using active learning.

ABSTRACT: Deep learning is one of the most advanced forms of machine learning. Most modern deep learning models are based on an artificial neural network, and benchmarking studies reveal that neural networks have produced results comparable to and in some cases superior to human experts. However, the generated neural networks are typically regarded as incomprehensible black-box models, which not only limits their applications, but also hinders testing and verifying. In this paper, we present an active learning framework to extract automata from neural network classifiers, which can help users to understand the classifiers. In more detail, we use Angluin's L* algorithm as a learner and the neural network under learning as an oracle, employing abstraction interpretation of the neural network for answe
