Emergent Hierarchical Monosemantic Neurons from the Group-Contrastive Forward-Forward Algorithm

Yiming Tang, Qinglin Qi, Zhaoqian Yao +2

Mechanistic interpretability has made significant strides in understanding neural network representations, with sparse dictionary learning (SDL) methods, most prominently sparse au…

SAHG: Sector-Anisotropic Hyperbolic Graph Model for Social Bot Detection

Hanning Lu, Yingguang Yang, Jinwei Su +8

LLM-driven social bots can generate fluent, human-like text, reducing the discriminative advantage of content-based detection alone. However, coordinated campaigns still leave rela…

A Unified Theory of Sparse Dictionary Learning in Mechanistic Interpretability: Piecewise Biconvexity and Spurious Minima

Yiming Tang, Harshvardhan Saini, Zhaoqian Yao +6

As AI models achieve remarkable capabilities across diverse domains, understanding what representations they learn and how they encode concepts has become increasingly important fo…

MagnifierSketch: Quantile Estimation Centered at One Point

Jiarui Guo, Qiushi Lyu, Yuhan Wu +6

In this paper, we take into consideration quantile estimation in data stream models, where every item in the data stream is a key-value pair. Researchers sometimes aim to estimate…

How Syntax Specialization Emerges in Language Models

Xufeng Duan, Zhaoqian Yao, Yunhao Zhang +2

Large language models (LLMs) have been found to develop surprising internal specializations: Individual neurons, attention heads, and circuits become selectively sensitive to synta…

QET: Enhancing Quantized LLM Parameters and KV cache Compression through Element Substitution and Residual Clustering

Yanshu Wang, Wang Li, Zhaoqian Yao +1

The matrix quantization entails representing matrix elements in a more space-efficient form to reduce storage usage, with dequantization restoring the original matrix for use. We f…
