arXiv:2509. 21886v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning to compute, the ability to model the functional behavior of a circuit graph, is a fundamental challenge for graph representation learning.
arXiv:2607. 18921v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Circuit extraction identifies a small set of model components whose presence preserves a target behavior under ablation, and the resulting circuit is often read as the mechanism behind that behavior.
arXiv:2605. 26343v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability seeks to explain a model's behaviour by finding its circuit: the sparse subgraph of the model's computation that is causally responsible for it.
arXiv:2605. 24033v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Mechanistic interpretability typically discovers circuits and then argues what they do from examples and ablations.
arXiv:2606. 16939v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A prominent research direction in mechanistic interpretability is learning sparse circuits over LLM components to reveal how they jointly produce model behavior.
arXiv:2606. 26873v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graphs provide a natural language for relational data in chemistry, biology and optimisation.
