arXiv:2506. 07406v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Understanding the internal representations of large language models (LLMs) is a central challenge in interpretability research.
arXiv:2602. 06065v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Understanding how the structure of language can be learned from sentences alone is a central question in both cognitive science and machine learning.
arXiv:2607. 29378v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) generate text by auto-regressively sampling the next token.
arXiv:2601. 22594v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The high-level concepts that a neural network uses to perform computation need not be aligned to individual neurons (Smolensky, 1986).
arXiv:2607. 08399v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models process prompts by propagating activations through dozens of layers before generating a response.
arXiv:2608. 15448v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models increasingly rely on sampling as a driver of their own improvement, making the fidelity of their learned distributions more critical than ever.
arXiv:2510. 07884v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Weak-to-strong generalization provides a promising paradigm for scaling large language models (LLMs) by training stronger models on samples from aligned weaker ones, without requiring human feedback or explicit reward modeling.
arXiv:2606. 26620v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) have emerged as a powerful tool for decomposing superposed language model representations into sparse and interpretable features.
arXiv:2607. 00510v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowing which training examples drive outputs is fundamental to auditing, correcting, and understanding language models, yet for modern LLMs this remains expensive, approximate, and largely post-hoc.
arXiv:2508. 17320v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Understanding the internal representations of large language models (LLMs) remains a central challenge for interpretability research.
arXiv:2602. 10352v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Self-interpretation methods prompt language models to describe their own internal states, but remain unreliable due to hyperparameter sensitivity.
arXiv:2606. 07604v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Analyzing attention weights has become a standard approach for interpreting the information flow of Large Language Models (LLMs).
arXiv:2606. 17522v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep neural networks are widely believed to derive their expressive power from their ability to form \textbf{hierarchical representations}, capturing progressively more abstract and compositional features across layers.
