In this paper, we investigate how concept-based models (CMs) respond to out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs. CMs are interpretable neural architectures that first predict a set of high-level *concepts* (e.g., "stripes", "black") and then predict a task label from those concepts. In particular, we study…
"Deep neural networks trained via empirical risk minimization often exhibit significant performance disparities across groups, particularly when group and task labels are spuriously correlated (e.g., “grassy background” and “cows”). Existing bias mitigation methods that aim to address this issue oft…
Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) tackle the opacity of neural architectures by constructing and explaining their predictions using a set of high-level concepts. A special property of these models is that they permit concept interventions, wherein users can correct mispredicted concepts and thus impr…
Recent work on interpretability has focused on concept-based explanations, where deep learning models are explained in terms of high-level units of information, referred to as concepts. Concept learning models, however, have been shown to be prone to encoding impurities in their representations, fai…
Deploying AI-powered systems requires trustworthy models supporting effective human interactions, going beyond raw prediction accuracy. Concept bottleneck models promote trustworthiness by conditioning classification tasks on an intermediate level of human-like concepts. This enables human intervent…
