Following the convention in \citet{altmeyer2023endogenous} we use $\mathbf{s}^\prime=\{ s_k\}_K$ to denote the vector $K$-dimensional array of counterfactual states. This is to explicitly account for the fact that we can generate multiple counterfactuals, as with DiCE \citep{mothilal2020explaining}, and may choose to traverse a latent representation $\mathcal{Z}$ of the feature space $\mathcal{X}$, as we will discuss further below. -Solutions to Equation~\ref{eq:general} are considered valid as soon as the predicted label matches the target label. A stripped-down counterfactual explanation is therefore little different from an adversarial example.
