Samenvatting	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.	A Self-supervised Variational Autoencoder (SS-VAE) combines the generative latent-space learning of a standard VAE with self-supervised pretext tasks — such as contrastive augmentation, masked reconstruction, or rotation prediction — to learn richer, more disentangled representations from unlabeled data without any manual annotation.
