Attention maps and post-hoc attributions often fail to reflect how these models actually combine modalities. The authors propose Tree-of-Evidence (ToE), which recasts explanation as a discrete search for the smallest set of… ## Co-authors here 4 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [May Dongmei Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/may-dongmei-wang/) ×2 - [Micky C.
