arXiv:2607. 17770v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Within Explainable Artificial Intelligence, mechanistic interpretability uses Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) to extract more interpretable features from neural representations.

arXiv:2606. 06333v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) are widely used for mechanistic interpretability in large language models, yet their formulation assigns each latent feature a single decoder direction, implicitly assuming features to be one-dimensional.

arXiv:2607. 10578v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing hypotheses represent a concept in an LLM as a single point, a linear direction, or a Gaussian cluster, yet it remains unclear how and why such structures emerge.
