Platonic Projection Structures: Operator-Induced Observability in Representation Learning

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

We characterize observability in representation learning through Platonic Projection Structures (PPS), an operator-theoretic framework for analyzing representation accessibility under partial observation. Rather than treating observable outputs as direct reflections of latent representations, PPS models observation through a self-adjoint positive semidefinite operator acting on a latent representation space.

From Plato to Aristotle: Toward a General Theory of Representation Hypotheses

The paper introduces the Lattice Representation Hypothesis (LRH) to explain why different alignment criteria—such as neighbor overlap, spanning trees, and distances—yield varying views on model representation convergence. It shows that the Platonic Representation Hypothesis (PRH) reflects agreement at the top of a lattice, while evidence comes from criteria near the bottom, and that the Aristotelian Representation Hypothesis (ARH) limits convergence to local neighborhoods due to calibration effects. Experiments on numerous pretrained vision and language models, along with theoretical analyses of linear autoencoders and contrastive Gibbs models, support the LRH’s claim that training procedures and objectives determine which criteria are reliably met across runs.
