Towards Understanding Human-aligned Neural Representation in the Presence of Confounding Variables

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) find one out of many possible solutions to a given task such as classification. This solution is more likely to pick up on spurious features and low-level statistical patterns in the train data rather than semantic features and highlevel abstractions, resulting in poor Ou...
