SAEVerbalizer: Generating Explanations for Sparse Autoencoder Features via Representation Verbalization

Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are proposed to extract numerous features from large language model (LLM) representations, yet explaining these features still relies primarily on external observation. This reliance leads to superficial explanations inferred from observed model behavior and computational inefficiency from collecting such behavioral evidence at scale.

Concept Heterogeneity-aware Representation Steering

arXiv:2603. 02237v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Representation steering offers a lightweight mechanism for controlling the behavior of large language models (LLMs) by intervening on internal activations at inference time.
