D-Score: A White-Box Diagnosis Score for CNNs Based on Mutation Operators

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely applied in many safety-critical domains, such as autonomous driving and medical diagnosis. However, concerns have been raised with respect to the trustworthiness of these models: The standard testing method evaluates the performance of a model on a test set, while low-quality and insufficient test sets can lead to unreliable evaluation results, which can have unforeseeable consequences. Therefore, how to comprehensively evaluate CNNs and, based on the evaluation results, how to enhance their trustworthiness are the key problems to be urgently addressed. Prior work has used mutation tests to evaluate the test sets of CNNs. However, the evaluation scores are black boxes and not explicit enough for what is being tested. In this paper, we propose a white-box diagnostic approach that uses mutation operators and image transformation to calculate the feature and attention distribution of the model and further present a diagnosis score, namely D-Score, to reflect the model's robustness and fitness to a dataset. We also propose a D-Score based data augmentation method to enhance the CNN's performance to translations and rescalings. Comprehensive experiments on two widely used datasets and three commonly adopted CNNs demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.
