Physical-Support Confidence Sets for Highly Coherent Dictionaries

arXiv:2608. 20295v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse pursuit after dictionary learning can yield a precise atom support even when its physical interpretation is not justified by the calibration data, especially for highly coherent dictionaries where alternative calibration-compatible dictionaries may assign different physical meanings to the same selected support.

From Geometric Recovery to Causal Validation: A Reproducible Audit of Sparse Autoencoder Features, from Superposition Geometry to Causal Inertness

arXiv:2607. 12166v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are the standard for decomposing superposed neural representations into interpretable features, and evaluation relies predominantly on correlational recovery metrics -- cosine similarity between ground-truth directions and decoder atoms.

The Right Measure for Physics-Constrained Generation: A Co-Area Correction for Posterior-Consistent PDE Inverse Problems

Generative models -- diffusion and flow matching -- are increasingly used to solve partial differential equation (PDE) inverse problems, enforcing the governing physics as a \emph{hard constraint} (via projection or guidance) and reporting the resulting samples as a Bayesian posterior with calibrated uncertainty. We show that this widely adopted recipe samples the wrong distribution.
