arXiv:2607. 04548v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Novel category discovery aims to identify unseen classes from unlabeled data by transferring knowledge from labeled categories, but most existing methods perform discovery in opaque latent feature spaces.
arXiv:2606. 29069v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Concept-based Explainable AI (C-XAI) seeks human-understandable explanations grounded in semantic concepts, yet validation is limited by the scarcity of fine-grained concept annotations.
Open-world object detection (OWOD) requires a detector to recognize known categories, discover unnamed objects from unseen categories, and incrementally learn newly annotated classes. PROB improves unknown discovery by modeling class-agnostic probabilistic objectness in the decoder-query space.

arXiv:2608. 15731v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) deployed in high-risk domains, such as healthcare and autonomous driving, must be not only accurate but also understandable to ensure user trust.
arXiv:2512. 07355v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Two traditions of interpretability have evolved side by side but seldom spoken to each other: Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs), which prescribe what a concept should be, and Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs), which discover what concepts emerge.
arXiv:2606. 30498v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Human decision-making interprets the world through high-level concepts, such as recognizing a bird by its belly color.
arXiv:2607. 00620v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generalized Category Discovery (GCD) aims to recognize known classes while autonomously discovering novel ones in open-world settings.
ProToMEx is a new explainability framework that uses Probabilistic Topic Models to learn latent topics representing high‑level reasons behind a classifier’s decisions, moving beyond simple feature attribution. It provides both global and local explanations, revealing multiple co‑existing reasons for individual predictions. Empirical results show that ProToMEx achieves comparable fidelity to SHAP and LIME while being 30–40× faster on standard tabular and synthetic datasets.
The paper introduces CFM, a language‑aligned concept foundation model for vision that generates fine‑grained, human‑interpretable concepts with spatial grounding. By pairing CFM with a strong semantic foundation model, it provides explanations for downstream tasks such as classification, segmentation, and captioning. The authors also analyze local co‑occurrence of concepts to define relationships, improving concept naming and yielding richer explanations while maintaining competitive performance.

arXiv:2509. 22015v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Standard Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) excel at discovering a dictionary of a model's learned features, providing a powerful lens for passive feature discovery.
