  We introduce an adversarial method for producing high-recall explanations of
neural text classifier decisions. Building on an existing architecture for
extractive explanations via hard attention, we add an adversarial layer which
scans the residual of the attention for remaining predictive signal. Motivated
by the important domain of detecting personal attacks in social media comments,
we additionally demonstrate the importance of manually setting a semantically
appropriate `default' behavior for the model by explicitly manipulating its
bias term. We develop a validation set of human-annotated personal attacks to
evaluate the impact of these changes.
