New framework reveals vision foundation models lack human interpretability

Researchers have developed a new framework to measure the human interpretability of vision foundation models. This framework uses two protocols: localizability, which assesses an observer's ability to predict where a feature fires on an image, and nameability, which evaluates how accurately an observer can describe what a feature represents. When applied to six vision transformers, including DINOv2, DINOv3, CLIP, and SigLIP, the study found that foundation models are consistently less interpretable than supervised models, and this difference is not due to a capability tradeoff.

    Capability $\neq$ Interpretability: Human Interpretability of Vision Foundation Models

    How interpretable are the features of leading vision models? The question is increasingly pressing as these models move from research benchmarks into high-stakes deployments, yet existing methods cannot answer it reliably. We close this gap with a framework for measuring and comp…
