There are now many comprehension algorithms for understanding the decisions of a machine learning algorithm. Among these are those based on the generation of counterfactual examples. This article proposes to view this generation process as a source of creating a certain amount of knowledge that can be stored to be used, later, in different ways. This process is illustrated in the additive model and, more specifically, in the case of the naive Bayes classifier, whose interesting properties for this purpose are shown.
