Self-Supervised Learning of Representations for Space Generates Multi-Modular Grid Cells

Rylan Schaeffer, Mikail Khona, Tzuhsuan Ma +3

To solve the spatial problems of mapping, localization and navigation, the mammalian lineage has developed striking spatial representations. One important spatial representation is…

Deceptive Alignment Monitoring

Andres Carranza, Dhruv Pai, Rylan Schaeffer +2

As the capabilities of large machine learning models continue to grow, and as the autonomy afforded to such models continues to expand, the spectre of a new adversary looms: the mo…

Invalid Logic, Equivalent Gains: The Bizarreness of Reasoning in Language Model Prompting

Rylan Schaeffer, Kateryna Pistunova, Samar Khanna +2

Language models can be prompted to reason through problems in a manner that significantly improves performance. However, \textit{why} such prompting improves performance is unclear…

FACADE: A Framework for Adversarial Circuit Anomaly Detection and Evaluation

Dhruv Pai, Andres Carranza, Rylan Schaeffer +2

We present FACADE, a novel probabilistic and geometric framework designed for unsupervised mechanistic anomaly detection in deep neural networks. Its primary goal is advancing the…

Pairwise Ranking Losses of Click-Through Rates Prediction for Welfare Maximization in Ad Auctions

Boxiang Lyu, Zhe Feng, Zachary Robertson +1

We study the design of loss functions for click-through rates (CTR) to optimize (social) welfare in advertising auctions. Existing works either only focus on CTR predictions withou…

Are Emergent Abilities of Large Language Models a Mirage?

Rylan Schaeffer, Brando Miranda, Sanmi Koyejo

Recent work claims that large language models display emergent abilities, abilities not present in smaller-scale models that are present in larger-scale models. What makes emergent…
