    In recent years, there has been an increasing trend of applying artificial intelligence in many different fields, which has a profound and direct impact on human life. Consequently, this raises the need to understand the principles of model making predictions. Since most current high-precision models are black boxes, neither the AI scientist nor the end-user profoundly understands what is happening inside these models. Therefore, many algorithms are studied to explain AI models, especially those in the image classification problem in computer vision such as LIME, CAM, GradCAM. However, these algorithms still have limitations, such as LIME's long execution time and CAM's confusing interpretation of concreteness and clarity. Therefore, in this paper, we will propose a new method called Segmentation - Class Activation Mapping (SeCAM)/ This method combines the advantages of these algorithms above while at simultaneously overcoming their disadvantages. We tested this algorithm with various models, including ResNet50, InceptionV3, and VGG16 from ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC) data set. Outstanding results were achieved when the algorithm has met all the requirements for a specific explanation in a remarkably short space of time.

    Random forest regressor has recently been proposed as a local landmark estimator in the face alignment problem. It has been shown that random forest regressor can achieve accurate, fast, and robust performance when coupled with a global face-shape regularizer. In this paper, we extend this approach and propose a new Local Forest Classification and Regression (LFCR) framework in order to handle face images with large yaw angles. Specifically, the LFCR has an additional classification step prior to the regression step. Our experiment results show that this additional classification step is useful in rejecting outliers prior to the regression step, thus improving the face alignment results. We also analyze each system component through detailed experiments. In addition to the selection of feature descriptors and several important tuning parameters of the random forest regressor, we examine different initialization and shape regularization processes. We compare our best outcomes to the state-of-the-art system and show that our method outperforms other parametric shape-fitting approaches.
