Prompt learning modifies vision‑language models by optimizing continuous prompt vectors, yet the resulting prompts are hard to interpret in natural language. PromptSpLiCE is a post‑hoc method that rewrites each class‑conditioned text embedding as a sparse mix of concepts from a fixed dictionary, enabling a direct comparison of concept profiles before and after prompt learning. Across 11 image‑classification datasets, the method shows that only about 1.6 of the initial top‑10 concepts remain after learning, and that larger profile changes correlate with higher accuracy gains, while a derived gradient expression offers geometric insight into loss sensitivity.

arXiv:2603. 22042v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have achieved remarkable performance, their Euclidean embeddings remain limited in capturing hierarchical relationships such as part-to-whole or parent-child structures, and often face challenges in multi-object compositional scenarios.

The paper introduces EvoPrompt, a framework for adapting vision‑language models to new tasks with limited data while preventing catastrophic forgetting. EvoPrompt uses a Modality‑Shared Prompt Projector to create hierarchical prompts and an evolutionary training strategy that separates low‑rank updates into directional and magnitude components, preserving learned semantic directions. Experiments show that EvoPrompt achieves state‑of‑the‑art few‑shot performance while maintaining the original zero‑shot capabilities of the pre‑trained models.
