It also ranks first in Artificial Intelligence and seventh overall in Google Scholar Metrics 2025, based on the h5-index.<br \/>\nSHAP, a method based on the Shapley value from cooperative game theory, is widely used to explain how much each input feature contributes to an AI model\u2019s prediction. However, its computational cost increases rapidly as the number of features grows. Drawing on the axiomatic approach of cooperative game theory, this paper proposes a new attribution rule, ESENSC, that can be computed in polynomial time and shows that it is uniquely characterized by a set of desirable axioms. Experiments show that the proposed rule closely approximates SHAP while improving computational efficiency in high-dimensional settings.<br \/>\nNeurIPS 2026 will be held from December 6 to 12, 2026, in Sydney, Australia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Paper (arXiv version): <a href=\"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/abs\/2603.00496\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/arxiv.org\/abs\/2603.00496<\/a><br \/>\nNeurIPS 2026: <a href=\"https:\/\/neurips.cc\/Conferences\/2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/neurips.cc\/Conferences\/2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A research paper co-authored by Junnosuke Shino, Associate Professor of the School of International Liberal St [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":25825,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[95,1],"tags":[94,76,73,63,26,28],"class_list":["post-25818","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en","category-news","tag-general-en","tag-outreach-en","tag-research-en","tag-outreach","tag-general","tag-research"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25818","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25818"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25818\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25830,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25818\/revisions\/25830"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25825"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25818"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25818"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/fire\/sils\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25818"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
