Researchers have developed a new framework to interpret the latent features of foundation models used in medical imaging. This prototype-based fuzzy-rule system clusters features to create human-readable IF-THEN rules, offering a transparent view of how models organize clinical information. Applied to ViT-S/16 models pre-trained on ImageNet-1K and GastroNet-5M, the method achieves accuracy comparable to black-box classifiers without fine-tuning, and can also analyze synthetic medical images to understand generator behavior.
