Why do gradient-based explanations struggle with Transformers, and how can we improve them? We identify gradientflow imbalances in Transformers that violate FullGradcompleteness, a critical property for attribution faithfulness that CNNs naturally possess. To address this issue, we introduce LibraGrad—a theoretically grounded post-hoc approach that corrects gradient imbalances through pruning and scaling of backward paths, without changing the forward pass or adding computational overhead. We evaluate LibraGrad using three metric families: Faithfulness, which quantifies prediction changes under perturbations of the most and least relevant features; Completeness Error, which measures attribution conservation relative to model outputs; and Segmentation AP, which assesses alignment with human perception. Extensive experiments across 8 architectures, 4 model sizes, and 5 datasets show that LibraGrad universally enhances gradient-based methods, outperforming existing white-box methods—including Transformer-specific approaches—across all metrics. We demonstrate superior qualitative results through two complementary evaluations: precise text-prompted region highlighting on CLIP models and accurate class discrimination between co-occurring animals on ImageNet-finetuned models—two settings on which existing methods often struggle. Libra-Grad is effective even on the attention-free MLP-Mixer architecture, indicating potential for extension to other modern architectures.
