LeGrad: An Explainability Method for Vision Transformers via Feature Formation Sensitivity

ICCV 2025poster

Vision Transformers (ViTs) have become a standard architecture in computer vision. However, because of their modeling of long-range dependencies through self-attention mechanisms, the explainability of these models remains a challenge. To address this, we propose LeGrad, an explainability method spe…

Multi-Level Explanations for Generative Language Models

ACL 2025long

Despite the increasing use of large language models (LLMs) for context-grounded tasks like summarization and question-answering, understanding what makes an LLM produce a certain response is challenging. We propose Multi-Level Explanations for Generative Language Models (MExGen), a technique to prov…

Dense Associative Memory Through the Lens of Random Features

NeurIPS 2024poster

Dense Associative Memories are high storage capacity variants of the Hopfield networks that are capable of storing a large number of memory patterns in the weights of the network of a given size. Their common formulations typically require storing each pattern in a separate set of synaptic weights,…

Interactive Visual Learning for Stable Diffusion

IJCAI 2024poster

Diffusion-based generative models’ impressive ability to create convincing images has garnered global attention. However, their complex internal structures and operations often pose challenges for non-experts to grasp. We introduce Diffusion Explainer, the first interactive visualization tool design…

Energy Transformer

NeurIPS 2023poster

Our work combines aspects of three promising paradigms in machine learning, namely, attention mechanism, energy-based models, and associative memory. Attention is the power-house driving modern deep learning successes, but it lacks clear theoretical foundations. Energy-based models allow a principle…

LMdiff: A Visual Diff Tool to Compare Language Models

EMNLP 2021system demonstrations

While different language models are ubiquitous in NLP, it is hard to contrast their outputs and identify which contexts one can handle better than the other. To address this question, we introduce LMdiff, a tool that visually compares probability distributions of two models that differ, e.g., throug…

CogMol: Target-Specific and Selective Drug Design for COVID-19 Using Deep Generative Models

NeurIPS 2020poster

The novel nature of SARS-CoV-2 calls for the development of efficient de novo drug design approaches. In this study, we propose an end-to-end framework, named CogMol (Controlled Generation of Molecules), for designing new drug-like small molecules targeting novel viral proteins with high affinity an…

GAN Dissection: Visualizing and Understanding Generative Adversarial Networks

ICLR 2019poster

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have recently achieved impressive results for many real-world applications, and many GAN variants have emerged with improvements in sample quality and training stability. However, visualization and understanding of GANs is largely missing. How does a GAN repres…

Seeing What a GAN Cannot Generate

ICCV 2019oral

Despite the success of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs), mode collapse remains a serious issue during GAN training. To date, little work has focused on understanding and quantifying which modes have been dropped by a model. In this work, we visualize mode collapse at both the distribution leve…
