CAFD: Concept-Aware DNN Fault Detection using VLMs

arXiv:2605.24008v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fault detection for Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) has received increasing attention in recent years. While more advanced hybrid approaches have been proposed to combine multiple sources of information and outperform earlier techniques, they often incur substantial computational overhead, limiting scalability and practicality in real-world settings. In this paper, we introduce Concept-Aware Fault Detection (CAFD), a learning-based approach that achie
