Priors in Time: Missing Inductive Biases for Language Model Interpretability
Ekdeep Singh Lubana, Can Rager, Sai Sumedh R. Hindupur +13
Recovering meaningful concepts from language model activations is a central aim of interpretability. While existing feature extraction methods aim to identify concepts that are ind…

From Flat to Hierarchical: Extracting Sparse Representations with Matching Pursuit
Valérie Costa, Thomas Fel, Ekdeep Singh Lubana +2
Motivated by the hypothesis that neural network representations encode abstract, interpretable features as linearly accessible, approximately orthogonal directions, sparse autoenco…
