Despite the success of neural models in natural language processing, their black-box nature limits interpretability and conceals the linguistic phenomena underlying their predictions. We present SLITE...
The paper introduces an inductive method for learning concept embeddings from cross‑linguistic colexification networks combined with short textual descriptions. Unlike previous transductive approaches, this framework can embed unseen concepts using only a brief definition. The resulting embeddings correlate with cross‑linguistic similarity measures and generalize well to new concepts.
arXiv:2606. 08497v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As deep language models (DLMs) are increasingly deployed in high-stakes domains such as healthcare, understanding their decision rationale becomes paramount for ensuring trust, safety, and accountability.
The paper introduces a comparative explainability framework for auditing DeBERTa‑v3 in zero‑shot medical abstract classification. It evaluates five explanation methods—SHAP, LIME, occlusion, Input × Gradient, and Attention × Gradient—using a natural language inference engine on a balanced corpus of 1,000 abstracts per diagnostic category. The study finds that explanatory stability aligns with predictive certainty, identifies three systemic failure mechanisms, and recommends combining multiple explanation methods and quantitative agreement metrics for transformer‑based medical text classifiers.
