• Support selection of AD backends via DifferentiationInterface.jl. (#167)
• For gradient-based XAI methods, an AD backend must now be manually loaded. To keep using the default Zygote backend, this simply requires adding using Zygote to your code. (#177)
• Gradient, InputTimesGradient and GradCAM analyzers now have an additional backend field and type parameter. (#167)
• Update XAIBase interface to v4. This adds a field to the Explanation return type and removes the add_batch_dim keyword argument. Refer to the XAIBase.jl changelog for more information. (#174)

This release removes the automatic reexport of heatmapping functionality.
Users are now required to manually load VisionHeatmaps.jl and/or TextHeatmaps.jl.

This reduces the maintenance burden for new heatmapping features and the amount of dependencies for users who don't require heatmapping functionality.

• Removed reexport of heatmapping functionality by updating XAIBase dependency (#162).
• Added GradCAM analyzer (#155). Try it with VisionHeatmaps.jl's new heatmap_overlay feature.

Merged pull requests:

• Add GradCAM analyzer (#155) (@JeanAnNess)
• Bump codecov/codecov-action from 3 to 4 (#161) (@dependabot[bot])
• Update XAIBase to v3.0.0 and document heatmap_overlay (#162) (@adrhill)

This release moves the core interface (Explanation, heatmap, analyze) into a separate package called XAIBase.jl. Developers can make use of the XAIBase.jl interface to quickly implement or prototype new methods without having to write boilerplate code.

As announced with version v0.6.2, this is first release without LRP, which has been moved to a separate package called RelevancePropagation.jl. This separation is enabled by the new common XAIBase.jl interface.

Notable changes

• Move core interface into XAIBase.jl package (#154).
  • Renamed Explanation field neuron_selection to output_selection
  • Added Explanation field heatmap for heatmapping presets
• Move LRP into RelevancePropagation.jl (#157)
• Remove ImageNet preprocessing utilities (#159)
• Partially move documentation into the Julia-XAI ecosystem documentation
