In rehabilitation movement analysis with multi-sensor inertial measurement units (IMUs), clinicians interpret motion through muscle-group and joint-segment abstractions; yet, most existing counterfactual methods operate at the channel level, producing scattered and biomechanically incoherent explanations. We propose a two-stage framework for
The increasing sophistication of AI models and the critical need for explainability in sensitive domains like healthcare are driving this research, particularly as time-series data becomes more prevalent.
This development can significantly enhance the adoption and trustworthiness of AI in medical rehabilitation by making explanations comprehensible to human experts, bridging the gap between AI outputs and clinical reasoning.
The ability to generate counterfactual explanations that align with semantic group-based reasoning, rather than individual sensor channels, improves the clinical utility and interpretability of AI in rehabilitation.
