arXiv:2606. 27941v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) provide useful decompositions of Transformer residual streams, but their learned features are usually named post hoc rather than directly connected to the Transformer's token vocabulary.

arXiv:2607. 08605v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) have emerged as a promising technique for mechanistic interpretability by learning a set of sparse latent features in large models, each of which encodes a distinct concept.
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:2607. 20652v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Language models are thought to exhibit the phenomenon of superposition, representing many more features than dimensions in their residual streams.
arXiv:2606. 24716v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are increasingly used to extract interpretable concepts from vision and vision language models, yet existing evaluation methods largely rely on proxy metrics or qualitative inspection rather than measuring semantic correspondence.
arXiv:2606. 11722v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Finding interpretable directions in language-model representations is critical for understanding and controlling model behavior.
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.
