Analyses of Diverse Agricultural Worker Data with Explainable Artificial Intelligence: XAI based on SHAP, LIME, and LightGBM

Abstract

We use recent explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) based on SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanations (LIME), and Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM) to analyze diverse physical agricultural (agri-) worker datasets. We have developed various promising body-sensing systems to enhance agri-technical advancement, training and worker development, and security. However, existing methods and systems are not sufficient for in-depth analysis of human motion. Thus, we have also developed wearable sensing systems (WS) that can capture real-time three-axis acceleration and angular velocity data related to agri-worker motion by analyzing human dynamics and statistics in different agri-fields, meadows, and gardens. After investigating the obtained time-series data using a novel program written in Python, we discuss our findings and recommendations with real agri-workers and managers. In this study, we use XAI and visualization to analyze diverse data of experienced and inexperienced agri-workers to develop an applied method for agri-directors to train agri-workers.
