Why RÄmÄnuja? Some Reflections on Christian-Vaiį¹£į¹ava Comparative Theology
This paper examines the very idea of developing a Christian-Hindu comparative theology by focusing on RÄmÄnuja in particular. The paper begins by reflecting on some possible reasons--social, political, theological and philosophicalāthat RÄmÄnuja, instead of Madhva and other Vaiį¹£į¹avas, has held, and continues to hold, such a central place in Christian-Vaiį¹£į¹ava comparative work. It then compares the Thomist doctrine of creation ex-nihilo with the theologies of RÄmÄnuja, Madhva and JÄ«va Goswami to illustrate that engaging with multiple Vaiį¹£į¹ava voices can enrich and expand the Christian-RÄmÄnuja comparative discourse
Induction of Non-Monotonic Logic Programs to Explain Boosted Tree Models Using LIME
We present a heuristic based algorithm to induce \textit{nonmonotonic} logic
programs that will explain the behavior of XGBoost trained classifiers. We use
the technique based on the LIME approach to locally select the most important
features contributing to the classification decision. Then, in order to explain
the model's global behavior, we propose the LIME-FOLD algorithm ---a
heuristic-based inductive logic programming (ILP) algorithm capable of learning
non-monotonic logic programs---that we apply to a transformed dataset produced
by LIME. Our proposed approach is agnostic to the choice of the ILP algorithm.
Our experiments with UCI standard benchmarks suggest a significant improvement
in terms of classification evaluation metrics. Meanwhile, the number of induced
rules dramatically decreases compared to ALEPH, a state-of-the-art ILP system
