Deep learning models trained using massive amounts of data tend to capture one view of the data and its associated mapping. Different deep learning models built on the same training data may capture different views of the data based on the underlying techniques used. For explaining the decisions arrived by blackbox deep learning models, we argue that it is essential to reproduce that model's view of the training data faithfully. This faithful reproduction can then be used for explanation generation. We investigate two methods for data view extraction: hill-climbing approach and a GAN-driven approach. We then use this synthesized data for creating shadow models for explanation generation: Decision-Tree model and Formal Concept Analysis based model. We evaluate these approaches on a Blackbox model trained on public datasets and show its usefulness in explanation generation.
