Inverted Detection and Control in Steering Vectors
Max Torop, Aria Masoomi, Jennifer Dy
Steering vectors (SVs) are widely used to influence the expression of concepts (e.g., truthfulness) in large language model outputs. A key assumption underpinning SVs is that they…
DISCO: Disentangled Communication Steering for Large Language Models
Max Torop, Aria Masoomi, Masih Eskandar +1
A variety of recent methods guide large language model outputs via the inference-time addition of steering vectors to residual-stream or attention-head representations. In contrast…
Axiomatic Explainer Globalness via Optimal Transport
Davin Hill, Josh Bone, Aria Masoomi +2
Explainability methods are often challenging to evaluate and compare. With a multitude of explainers available, practitioners must often compare and select explainers based on quan…
Boundary-Aware Uncertainty for Feature Attribution Explainers
Davin Hill, Aria Masoomi, Max Torop +2
Post-hoc explanation methods have become a critical tool for understanding black-box classifiers in high-stakes applications. However, high-performing classifiers are often highly…
