Challenges in Evaluating Explanation Methods for Static and Evolving Data

Jerzy Stefanowski

This paper addresses the limitations of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) with respect to insufficient evaluation. They are illustrated through the DetoxAI image recognition system for bias detection and concept unlearning. Then, an example of a human-grounded evaluation of methods for explaining image classification is presented. The paper further explores methods for adapting explanation...

Does FLAIR super-resolution erase or hallucinate small white-matter lesions?

Zahra Khodakarami, Yue Li, Pulkit Khandelwal, John Detre, Sandhitsu Das et al.

White matter hyperintensities (WMH), bright regions on Fluid-attenuated Inversion Recovery (FLAIR) scans are associated with cerebrovascular pathology and neurodegeneration. FLAIR is usually acquired with thick slices in clinical settings, giving it poor through-plane resolution. Super-resolution (SR) is a widely used method for recovering an isotropic volume from an anisotropic scan. Yet whether ...

Robot Learning from Human Demonstrations: Handwritten Alphabet Trajectories and Human-Likeness Evaluation

Alperen Kenan, Paul Bremner, Manuel Giuliani

Learning from demonstration (LfD) provides a developmental framework through which robots can develop motor skills by observing and imitating human dynamics, reducing reliance on explicit programming to teach a skill to a robot. The resulting human-like robot motion is recognised as a key factor in building trust and enabling natural collaboration in human-robot interaction. This paper presents a ...

HOPE: Hand-Object Pressure Estimation from Monocular Videos

Subin Jeon, Byungjun Kim, Hanbyul Joo

Estimating physical pressure from vision is essential for understanding contact-rich hand-object interaction. However, prior vision-based pressure estimation methods are largely limited to planar surfaces and single image input, making them difficult to apply to dynamic hand-object interaction with diverse objects. We instead formulate pressure estimation as a hand-centric video prediction problem...

Schema-Guided Hierarchical Information Extraction and Semantic Evaluation Using Generative AI

Modhurita Mitra, Jan-Willem Versteeg, Maarten D. Schermer, Shiva Nadi Najafabadi, Marie L. De Bruin et al.

We present a schema-based framework for extracting complex, structured information from unstructured text documents using generative AI, followed by automated semantic evaluation of the extracted information against a gold standard. The schema, serving as an information model encoding domain knowledge, provides a unified, systematic, and consistent framework for extraction of hierarchical, nested ...

Learning visual representations for compositional analysis of artworks and photographs

Fatemeh Behrad, Tinne Tuytelaars, Johan Wagemans

Composition, the deliberate arrangement of visual elements, is central to how meaning, emotion, and aesthetic quality are conveyed in artwork, yet it remains among the least formalized dimensions of visual understanding. Prior work highlights a persistent gap in learning meaningful compositional representations, attributing it to semantic bias and suggesting that human-inspired approaches may be k...

Integrating Implicit and Explicit Relational Biases through Graph-Based Multiple Instance Learning: A Case Study in Skin Lesion Diagnosis

Rafał Buler, Jakub Buler, Maciej Bobowicz, Michał Grochowski

Relational inductive biases are essential for capturing structural dependencies among data. This study investigates a dual-level relational framework for image classification, bridging the gap between implicit representation learning and explicit structural modelling. We begin by establishing a baseline using an EfficientNetB3 architecture. To move beyond standard convolutional biases, we adopt a ...

The em-dash em-beds in Congress: A population-level rise in em-dash frequency in U.S. congressional press releases at the dawn of the large-language-model era, 2021-2025

Przemysław Czuma

Large language models (LLMs) can leave small stylistic traces in text written with their help. The most discussed is the em-dash (U+2014), especially the unspaced form word---word, which is normal in typeset English prose but unusual in U.S. press writing, where AP style calls for spaced dashes. This study asks whether that trace is measurable in congressional press releases. In a preregistered de...

MAVISEG: Manifold Propagation and Visual Prototypes for Zero-Shot Open-Vocabulary Segmentation in Diffusion Transformers

Rajatsubhra Chakraborty, Xujun Che, Ritabrata Chakraborty, Xi Niu, Depeng Xu

Text-to-image diffusion transformers learn about objects and scenes by learning to generate them, making them strong candidates for training-free zero-shot open-vocabulary semantic segmentation. State-of-the-art attribution methods score each pixel independently, comparing its features against a fixed text-derived class representation, whether as an output-space similarity or as a cross-attention ...
