Metadata about: In this paper, we propose a quadtree based approach to capture the spatial information of medical images for explaining nonlinear SVM prediction. In medical image classification, interpretability becomes important to understand why the adopted model works. Explaining an SVM prediction is difficult due to implicit mapping done in kernel classification is uninformative about the position of data points in the feature space and the nature of the separating hyperplane in the original space. The proposed method finds ROIs which contain the discriminative regions behind the prediction. Localization of the discriminative region in small boxes can help in interpreting the prediction by SVM. Quadtree decomposition is applied recursively before applying SVMs on sub images and model identified ROIs are highlighted. Pictorial results of experiments on various medical image datasets prove the effectiveness of this approach. We validate the correctness of our method by applying occlusion methods.
