Abstract

One embodiment provides a method, comprising: receiving an input sentence for a classification by a machine-learning model, where the classification is based upon a sentiment of the input sentence; splitting the input sentence into a plurality of tokens, each of the plurality of tokens corresponding to a term within the input sentence; creating a causal subgraph from the plurality of tokens, wherein the creating is based upon a causal relationship identified between tokens of the plurality of tokens; identifying, using the causal subgraph, tokens of the plurality of tokens influencing the classification; and generating, based upon the tokens of the plurality of tokens, a causal explanation for the classification, wherein the causal explanation identifies at least one portion of the input sentence resulting in the classification.
