Diagnosing Failures in Generalization from Task-Relevant Representational Geometry

ICLR 2026poster

Generalization—the ability to perform well beyond the training context—is a hallmark of biological and artificial intelligence, yet anticipating unseen failures remains a central challenge. Conventional approaches often take a bottom-up mechanistic route by reverse-engineering interpretable features…

Feature Learning beyond the Lazy-Rich Dichotomy: Insights from Representational Geometry

ICML 2025spotlight

Integrating task-relevant information into neural representations is a fundamental ability of both biological and artificial intelligence systems. Recent theories have categorized learning into two regimes: the rich regime, where neural networks actively learn task-relevant features, and the lazy r…

The Geometry of Prompting: Unveiling Distinct Mechanisms of Task Adaptation in Language Models

NAACL 2025findings

Decoder-only language models have the ability to dynamically switch between various computational tasks based on input prompts. Despite many successful applications of prompting, there is very limited understanding of the internal mechanism behind such flexibility. In this work, we investigate how d…

(Nearly) Efficient Algorithms for the Graph Matching Problem on Correlated Random Graphs

NeurIPS 2019poster

We consider the graph matching/similarity problem of determining how similar two given graphs $G_0,G_1$ are and recovering the permutation $\pi$ on the vertices of $G_1$ that minimizes the symmetric difference between the edges of $G_0$ and $\pi(G_1)$. Graph matching/similarity has applications for…
