Risk Level: HIGH | Robustness: 3/10

Summary: The model exhibits significant bias by relying on spurious features such as the net background and water droplets, leading to unreliable classifications. Addressing these biases by focusing on essential features will improve the model's robustness.

Identified Vulnerabilities

  • The model relies heavily on spurious features such as the net background, water droplets, and body lightening, which can lead to incorrect classifications under different conditions.

Recommendations

  • Remove the net background and water droplets from the dataset to reduce model bias. Ensure the model focuses on essential features like the body, fins, and eye details to improve robustness.

Risk Level: MEDIUM | Robustness: 7/10

Summary: The model demonstrates robustness by relying on essential features of a great white shark, but it exhibits significant vulnerability to spurious features like the background and bubbles. This suggests a need for a more robust training dataset and possibly additional regularization techniques.

Identified Vulnerabilities

  • The model relies on spurious features like background, bubbles, and color gradients for classification, which can lead to incorrect predictions when these features are altered or removed.

Recommendations

  • Train the model on a dataset that includes diverse images of great white sharks without spurious features such as background or bubbles. Ensure the training data is balanced and representative of the natural variations in the species.

Risk Level: MEDIUM | Robustness: 3/10

Summary: The model exhibits significant bias towards non-essential features, leading to decreased confidence when these features are altered. To improve robustness, focus on essential features that define a stingray.

Identified Vulnerabilities

  • The model relies heavily on non-essential features such as color gradients, background texture, and lighting effects, which can lead to misclassification under varying conditions.

Recommendations

  • Improve the model's robustness by focusing on essential features only, such as the presence of blue spots, body shape, and tail fin texture. This will help mitigate the risk of misclassification due to reliance on spurious features.

Detected Features

Intrinsic = part of the object (expected to affect classification). Contextual = background/environment (if it affects classification, it's a shortcut).

Risk Level: MEDIUM | Robustness: 2/10

Summary: The model exhibits significant bias towards non-essential features like feather texture, body shape, and eye color, leading to unreliable performance when these features are altered. Addressing this by focusing on essential features will enhance the model's robustness.

Identified Vulnerabilities

  • The model relies heavily on non-essential features like feather texture, body shape, and eye color, which can lead to misclassification if these features are altered or removed

Recommendations

  • Remove features that are not semantically related to 'hen', such as background, environment, and co-occurring objects. Focus on essential features like feather texture, body shape, and eye color to improve robustness against model biases

Risk Level: MEDIUM | Robustness: 4/10

Summary: The model exhibits significant robustness issues due to its reliance on non-essential features like the bird silhouette and enhanced feather texture. Improving focus on essential features is crucial for enhancing model reliability.

Identified Vulnerabilities

  • The model relies heavily on non-essential features like the bird silhouette and enhanced feather texture, which can lead to misclassification if these features are altered or removed

Recommendations

  • Improve the model's robustness by focusing on essential features only, such as the black cap, white underbelly, gray wings, and feather texture. This will reduce the risk of misclassification due to reliance on spurious features

Pipeline Steps

1. Knowledge Discovery

VLM uses world knowledge to identify potential shortcuts for the target class (e.g., for "cat" it suggests "yarn ball", "milk bowl" as commonly associated features). No images needed.

2. Sample Collection

Collect positive samples and negative samples from confusing classes (identified from classifier top-k predictions) from ImageNet validation set.

3. Baseline Classification

Classify all samples with attention maps (scorecam) to establish baseline confidence and visualize which image regions the classifier focuses on.

4. Image-Based Feature Discovery

The VLM (Qwen/Qwen2.5-VL-7B-Instruct) analyzes each image + attention map to identify visual features. It classifies features as intrinsic (object parts) or contextual (background).

5. Counterfactual Editing

The VLM generates specific edit instructions, then the image editor (black-forest-labs/FLUX.2-klein-9b-kv) applies each edit. Multiple generations per edit ensure robustness. Model lifecycle managed by ModelManager for VRAM efficiency.

6. Impact Measurement + Attention Diff

Re-classify edited images and measure confidence change (delta). When enabled, Grad-CAM is also computed on edited images to produce attention diff heatmaps showing where the model gained (red) or lost (blue) focus. Statistical tests (t-test, Cohen's d) validate significance.

7. Report Generation

Generate comprehensive reports showing shortcuts with evidence images, feature impact analysis, and risk assessment per class.

Interpretation Guide

Key Insight: A shortcut is when the model wrongly relies on a contextual feature (background, environment).
Impact (Δ) Meaning If Intrinsic Feature If Contextual Feature
-0.30 or lower Very high importance ✓ Expected - critical feature 🚨 SHORTCUT - Major bias!
-0.15 to -0.30 Significant importance ✓ Good - model uses this ⚠ SHORTCUT - Bias concern
-0.05 to +0.05 Minimal impact May be underutilized ✓ Good - not relied upon
+0.05 to +0.30 Feature was distracting Unexpected - investigate ✓ ROBUST - Model handles noise well
+0.30 or higher Feature was hurting badly Unexpected - investigate ✓ Very ROBUST - Model ignores context

Risk Levels

🟢 LOW RISK

<10% of hypotheses confirmed. Model appears robust and relies primarily on intrinsic features.

🟡 MEDIUM RISK

10-30% confirmed. Some shortcuts present. May need attention for deployment in diverse contexts.

🔴 HIGH RISK

>30% confirmed. Significant shortcuts/biases detected. Model may fail on out-of-distribution data.
