Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) have been successfully used to discover sparse and human-interpretable representations of the latent activations of language models (LLMs). However, we would ultimately like to understand the computations performed by LLMs and not just their representations. The extent to…
Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) are a promising approach to interpreting the internal representations of transformer language models. However, SAEs are usually trained separately on each transformer layer, making it difficult to use them to study how information flows across layers. To solve this problem…
To improve how neural networks function it is crucial to understand their learning process. The information bottleneck theory of deep learning proposes that neural networks achieve good generalization by compressing their representations to disregard information that is not relevant to the task. How…
