Towards Open-Ended Visual Scientific Discovery with Sparse Autoencoders
Samuel Stevens, Jacob Beattie, Tanya Berger-Wolf +1
Scientific archives now contain hundreds of petabytes of data across genomics, ecology, climate, and molecular biology that could reveal undiscovered patterns if systematically ana…
BioCAP: Exploiting Synthetic Captions Beyond Labels in Biological Foundation Models
Ziheng Zhang, Xinyue Ma, Arpita Chowdhury +9
This work investigates descriptive captions as an additional source of supervision for biological multimodal foundation models. Images and captions can be viewed as complementary s…
BioCLIP 2: Emergent Properties from Scaling Hierarchical Contrastive Learning
Jianyang Gu, Samuel Stevens, Elizabeth G Campolongo +13
Foundation models trained at scale exhibit remarkable emergent behaviors, learning new capabilities beyond their initial training objectives. We find such emergent behaviors in bio…
Interpretable and Testable Vision Features via Sparse Autoencoders
Samuel Stevens, Wei-Lun Chao, Tanya Berger-Wolf +1
To truly understand vision models, we must not only interpret their learned features but also validate these interpretations through controlled experiments. While earlier work offe…
