Introduced by Divyang Teotia et al. in Interpreting Face Inference Models using Hierarchical Network Dissection

archive 2025-07-28 Description, source and code snippet are the archive's method entry.

Hierarchical Network Dissection is a pipeline for interpreting the internal representation of face-centric inference models. Using a probabilistic formulation, Hierarchical Network Dissection pairs units of the model with concepts in a "Face Dictionary" (a collection of facial concepts with corresponding sample images). Interpretable units are discovered in a convolution layer through HND to identify multiple instances of unit-concept affinity. The pipeline is inspired by Network Dissection, an interpretability model for object-centric and scene-centric models.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
