Conceptual Views of Neural Networks: A Framework for Neuro-Symbolic Analysis

We introduce \emph{conceptual views} as a formal framework grounded in Formal Concept Analysis for globally explaining neural networks. Experiments on twenty-four ImageNet models and Fruits-360 show that these views faithfully represent the original models, enable architecture comparison via Gromov–Wasserstein distance, and support abductive learning of human-comprehensible rules from neurons.
