## Abstract (arXiv)

eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is a sub-field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that is at the forefront of AI research. In XAI, feature attribution methods produce explanations in the form of feature importance. People often use feature importance as guidance for intervention. However, a limitation of existing feature attribution methods is that there is a lack of explanation towards the consequence of intervention. In other words, although contribution towards a certain prediction is highlighted by feature attribution methods, the relation between features and the consequence of intervention is not studied. The aim of this paper is to introduce a new framework, called a peer influence framework to look deeper into explanations using graph representation for feature-to-feature interactions to improve the interpretability of black-box Machine Learning models and inform intervention.
