Addressing Leakage in Concept Bottleneck Models

Concept bottleneck models (CBMs) (Chen et al., 2020; Koh et al., 2020; Y eh et al., 2020; Lage & Doshi-V elez, 2020; Wang et al., 2017) propose explicitly aligning the intermediate layers of a The concept bottleneck model (CBM) makes its prediction in two stages. While soft concepts may improve predictive performance, this improvement comes at a cost.
