• Abstract: This study evaluates the potential of a large language model for aiding in generation of semantic feature norms - a critical tool for evaluating conceptual structure in cognitive science. Building from an existing human-generated dataset, we show that machine-verified norms capture aspects of conceptual structure beyond what is expressed in human norms alone, and better explain human judgments of semantic similarity amongst items that are distally related. The results suggest that LLMs can greatly enhance traditional methods of semantic feature norm verification, with implications for our understanding of conceptual representation in humans and machines.

  Learning concepts from natural high-dimensional data holds potential in building human-aligned and interpretable machine learning models. We formalize concepts as discrete latent causal variables that are related via a hierarchical causal model. We substantiate our theoretical claims with synthetic data experiments.

  This study explores the potential of a Large Language Model (LLM) to generate high-level concepts that are meaningful as explanations for humans. We compare the concepts generated by the LLM with two other methods: concepts generated by humans and the ECII concept induction system. Our findings indicate that while human-generated explanations remain superior, concepts derived from GPT-4 are more comprehensible to humans compared to those generated by ECII.

• Interpreting Pretrained Language Models via Concept Bottlenecks [55.47515772358389]
  Pretrained language models (PLMs) have made significant strides in various natural language processing tasks. The lack of interpretability due to their black-box'' nature poses challenges for responsible implementation. We propose a novel approach to interpreting PLMs by employing high-level, meaningful concepts that are easily understandable for humans.

  Focus in Explainable AI is shifting from explanations defined in terms of low-level elements, such as input features, to explanations encoded in terms of interpretable concepts learned from data. How to reliably acquire such concepts is, however, still fundamentally unclear. We propose a mathematical framework for acquiring interpretable representations suitable for both post-hoc explainers and concept-based neural networks.

  This paper presents a new symbolic-only method for the generation of hierarchical concept structures from complex sensory data. The approach is based on Bateson's notion of difference as the key to the genesis of an idea or a concept. The model is able to produce fairly rich yet human-readable conceptual representations without training.

We provide a clear definition of interpretability in terms of alignment between the model's representation and an underlying data generation process. We introduce GlanceNets, a new CBM that exploits techniques from disentangled representation learning and open-set recognition to achieve alignment.
