Interpretable AI

In a field where LSTMs, transformers, and black-box agents often dominate the conversation, a new framework dares to ask: What if our old tools weren’t wrong, just under-optimized? That’s the central premise behind Technical Indicator Networks (TINs) — a novel architecture that transforms traditional technical analysis indicators into interpretable, trainable neural networks. Indicators, Meet Neural Networks Rather than discarding hand-crafted indicators like MACD or RSI, the TIN approach recasts them as neural network topologies. A Moving Average becomes a linear layer. MACD? A cascade of two EMAs with a subtractive node and a smoothing layer. RSI? A bias-regularized division circuit. The resulting neural networks aren’t generic function approximators; they’re directly derived from the mathematical structure of the indicators themselves. ...

The Grammar and the Glow: Making Sense of Time-Series AI What if time-series data had a grammar, and AI could read it? That idea is no longer poetic conjecture—it now has theoretical teeth and practical implications. Two recent papers offer a compelling convergence: one elevates interpretability in time-series AI through heatmap fusion and NLP narratives, while the other proposes that time itself forms a latent language with motifs, tokens, and even grammar. Read together, they suggest a future where interpretable AI is not just about saliency maps or attention—it becomes a linguistically grounded system of reasoning. ...
