• Abstract summary: We re-think vision-model explainability from a novel perspective, to probe the general input structure that a model has learnt during its training. Experiments on standard vision datasets and pre-trained models reveal consistent patterns, and could be intergrated as an additional model-agnostic explainability tool.

• Abstract: Model interpretability is a key challenge that has yet to align with the advancements observed in contemporary state-of-the-art deep learning models. In particular, deep learning aided vision tasks require interpretability, in order for their adoption in more specialized domains such as medical imaging. Although the field of explainable AI (XAI) developed methods for interpreting vision models along with early convolutional neural networks, recent XAI research has mainly focused on assigning attributes via saliency maps. As such, these methods are restricted to providing explanations at a sample level, and many explainability methods suffer from low adaptability across a wide range of vision models. In our work, we re-think vision-model explainability from a novel perspective, to probe the general input structure that a model has learnt during its training. To this end, we ask the question: "How would a vision model fill-in a masked-image". Experiments on standard vision datasets and pre-trained models reveal consistent patterns, and could be intergrated as an additional model-agnostic explainability tool in modern machine-learning platforms.

• Autoregressive Models in Vision: A Survey [119.23742136065307]
  This survey comprehensively examines the literature on autoregressive models applied to vision. We divide visual autoregressive models into three general sub-categories, including pixel-based, token-based, and scale-based models. We present a multi-faceted categorization of autoregressive models in computer vision, including image generation, video generation, 3D generation, and multi-modal generation.

  Vision systems to see and reason about the compositional nature of visual scenes are fundamental to understanding our world. The models learned to bridge the gap between such modalities coupled with large-scale training data facilitate contextual reasoning, generalization, and prompt capabilities at test time. The output of such models can be modified through human-provided prompts without retraining, e.g., segmenting a particular object by providing a bounding box, having interactive dialogues by asking questions about an image or video scene or manipulating the robot's behavior through language instructions.

We were able to reduce the reconstruction loss (mean square error) from an initial value of 120 without augmentation to 60 with augmentation.
