Spatially Grounded Concept Bottleneck Models via Part-Factorized Attention

arXiv:2606. 04364v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Concept bottleneck models (CBMs) predict a layer of human-named attributes before predicting a class, which makes their decisions auditable.

Adversarially Robust Abductive Fusion of Pre-trained Transformer-based Perception Models

arXiv:2608. 04190v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying pre-trained perception models in novel environments degrades their accuracy under distributional shift, and assembling them alone does not recover it: combiners such as majority voting trade recall for precision and are brittle to coordinated failures.

Why Does Grounding Hurt Medical VQA? Benchmarking, Diagnosis, and Fine-Tuning of Vision-Language Models

arXiv:2604. 27720v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly applied to medical visual question answering (Med-VQA), yet whether they can \emph{localize} the evidence behind their answers---a prerequisite for clinical auditability---is poorly characterized.
