Forking Fast: Efficiently Estimating Uncertainty Dynamics in Text Generation
Eric Bigelow, Amir Zur, Satchel Grant +7
LLM reasoning is stochastic, and so understanding a model requires grappling with the distribution of reasoning chains that it might produce for a given question, i.e., its uncerta…
Structuring Sparsity: Block-Sparse Featurizers Capture Visual Concept Manifolds
Thomas Fel, Matthew Kowal, Mozes Jacobs +22
What is the geometry of a visual percept? The most widely used protocols for decomposing neural network representations into interpretable parts treat concepts as isolated directio…
Manifold Steering Reveals the Shared Geometry of Neural Network Representation and Behavior
Daniel Wurgaft, Can Rager, Matthew Kowal +13
Neural representations carry rich geometric structure; but does that structure causally shape behavior? To address this question, we intervene along paths through activation space…
Arithmetic in the Wild: Llama uses Base-10 Addition to Reason About Cyclic Concepts
Sheridan Feucht, Tal Haklay, Usha Bhalla +9
Does structure in representations imply structure in computation? We study how Llama-3.1-8B reasons over cyclic concepts (e.g., "what month is six months after August?"). Even thou…
Do Sparse Autoencoders Capture Concept Manifolds?
Usha Bhalla, Thomas Fel, Can Rager +9
Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are widely used to extract interpretable features from neural network representations, often under the implicit assumption that concepts correspond to in…
Structured World Representations in Maze-Solving Transformers
Michael Igorevich Ivanitskiy, Alex F. Spies, Tilman Räuker +9
Transformer models underpin many recent advances in practical machine learning applications, yet understanding their internal behavior continues to elude researchers. Given the siz…
A Configurable Library for Generating and Manipulating Maze Datasets
Michael Igorevich Ivanitskiy, Rusheb Shah, Alex F. Spies +8
Understanding how machine learning models respond to distributional shifts is a key research challenge. Mazes serve as an excellent testbed due to varied generation algorithms offe…
