We even show you can do this without a specialized heatmap model if you have a good classifier for the badness you want to eliminate by fine-tuning. Simply use a pixel attribution technique like GRADCAM to generate the heatmap !

How to protect yourself:
- Always check what your model actually learned (use SHAP, LIME, GradCAM)
- Watch for confounding: are your labels correlated with batch, site, or technical variables?

Good question! Investigating which areas of the images are important for the result? Like some sort of GradCam but for diffusion models, which IMHO is an entirely new paper by itself. But interesting future work for sure: explanation methods for diffusion models, that sounds new to me 🤔
