arXiv:2606. 18383v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are increasingly used to extract interpretable features from language models (LMs), yet a central question remains: when can an SAE-based explanation be treated as a faithful view of an underlying frozen LM We study this through a post-hoc generalization framework that certifies the LM via a sparse proxy, obtained by replacing a native hidden activation with its pretrained SAE reconstruction.
arXiv:2602. 14687v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Improving Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) requires benchmarks that can precisely validate architectural innovations.
arXiv:2506. 07691v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sparse Autoencoders (SAEs) are a cornerstone of mechanistic interpretability.
arXiv:2606. 27321v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) have become a leading tool for interpreting the representations of vision foundation models, decomposing their polysemantic activations into a larger set of sparse, more monosemantic features.
arXiv:2605. 18629v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are one of the main methods to interpret the inner workings of deep neural networks (DNNs), decomposing activations into higher-dimensional features.
arXiv:2606. 14990v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are standard tools for mechanistic interpretability, but current SAE families are constrained by fixed encoder nonlinearities such as ReLU, JumpReLU, and TopK.
