The authors introduce concept frustration, a diagnostic for detecting when an omitted task-relevant concept may distort relationships among concepts in a concept bottleneck model. It compares those relationships using task-aligned, Fisher-information-based geometry. In synthetic experiments, frustration lowered mean CBM accuracy from 0.718 to 0.699; language and vision comparisons showed lower frustration after adding candidate concepts, without significant accuracy gains.
