This paper proposes “AnyCBM”, a novel method that transforms any existing trained deep learning model into an interpretable Concept Bottleneck Model (CBM) with minimal computational overhead. CBMs are neural networks whose decision-making processes can be understood by humans through the integration of human-understandable concepts. The authors highlight the limitations of traditional CBMs, which require training a new model from scratch, consuming significant resources and failing to utilize already trained large models. In contrast, AnyCBM leverages existing models, preserving their learned knowledge while gaining interpretability. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of AnyCBMs in terms of classification performances and the impact of concept-based interventions on downstream tasks.

This paper wants to make deep learning more understandable by people. They propose a new way to do this called “AnyCBM”. Right now, these interpretable models require training from scratch, which takes a lot of time and computer power. AnyCBM is special because it can take any existing trained model and turn it into an interpretable one without needing lots of resources. The authors show that AnyCBMs work well in terms of performance and helping with decision-making tasks.
