Abstract: In an effort to create a more explainable AI system, we introduce a novel multi-modality learning framework in this study. This framework leverages a domain-agnostic concept space designed to be transparent and interpretable and a set of domain-specific projection models tailored to process distinct modality inputs and map them onto this concept space. This separation of the concept space and the projection models brings versatility to our framework, allowing easy adaptations to various modalities and downstream tasks. We evaluate our framework's performance in a zero-shot setting on two popular tasks: Image-Text Matching and Visual Question Answering. Our framework achieves performance levels on par with benchmark fine-tuned models for these tasks while maintaining an explainable architecture.
