The paper introduces a method for efficiently exploring the Rashomon set of Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) by using a parallel parameter‑efficient adaptation module, checkpointing, and a concept diversity objective. This approach generates multiple equally accurate CBMs from a single training process, achieving greater diversity than baseline methods while consuming less memory. The resulting diverse models enable trustworthy selection, reduce inter‑class confusion, and support reliable abstention in decision‑making.

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.
