Where We Have Arrived in Proving the Emergence of Sparse Symbolic Concepts in AI Models

Qihan Ren, Jiayang Gao, Wen Shen +1

This study aims to prove the emergence of symbolic concepts (or more precisely, sparse primitive inference patterns) in well-trained deep neural networks (DNNs). Specifically, we p…

Explaining Generalization Power of a DNN Using Interactive Concepts

Huilin Zhou, Hao Zhang, Huiqi Deng +4

This paper explains the generalization power of a deep neural network (DNN) from the perspective of interactions. Although there is no universally accepted definition of the concep…

Does a Neural Network Really Encode Symbolic Concepts?

Mingjie Li, Quanshi Zhang

Recently, a series of studies have tried to extract interactions between input variables modeled by a DNN and define such interactions as concepts encoded by the DNN. However, stri…

Technical Note: Defining and Quantifying AND-OR Interactions for Faithful and Concise Explanation of DNNs

Mingjie Li, Quanshi Zhang

In this technical note, we aim to explain a deep neural network (DNN) by quantifying the encoded interactions between input variables, which reflects the DNN's inference logic. Spe…
