요약	An Explainable Variational Autoencoder (XVAE) extends the standard VAE framework with techniques that make its latent space interpretable: disentangling latent dimensions so each corresponds to a human-understandable factor, or post-hoc attribution methods (SHAP, integrated gradients) that trace reconstructions back to input features. It retains the VAE's generative power while adding transparency required in scientific and high-stakes applications.	The Multimodal Variational Autoencoder (MVAE) is a deep generative model that learns a shared latent representation across two or more data modalities — such as images and captions — using a product-of-experts fusion of modality-specific encoders, enabling generation and inference even when only a subset of modalities is observed at test time.
