Review for NeurIPS paper: Detecting Interactions from Neural Networks via Topological Analysis
–Neural Information Processing Systems
Weaknesses: Weaknesses Evaluating feature interactions - I think the synthetic dataset experiment in Section 4.1 is a good step towards evaluating the efficacy of PID. Looking at the AUC numbers, the performance of PID, AG, and NID seems quite close. Given these are synthetic data results, and the testbed is quite controlled, I would encourage the authors to provide more insights on why the performance is similar/close. For instance, the authors note AG is "tree-based", but it is not immediately clear how or why this may the main reason PID to perform better in F5, F6, and F8. Furthermore, with NID being a similar (in spirit) baseline, I would expect more in-depth analysis and discussion on the benefits that PID brings comparatively.
