Multi-head latent attention (MLA) compresses the content of a key-value cache into a shared latent per token, making low-bit storage attractive for long-context inference. At two bits, errors in this representation perturb both attention matching and value readout, with effects that depend on error direction and recons...
Learning informative representations of mechanical Triply Periodic Minimal Surface (TPMS) metamaterials is important for mechanics analysis and structural design, yet existing methods have rarely explicitly supervised learned representations with information about global structural connectivity that is relevant to mech...
Code models write Python when the prompt does not say which language to use. We ask a mechanistic question about that habit: is it produced by a small, findable group of components inside the model? We run one pipeline---mean ablation, activation patching, greedy circuit extraction, a random-control significance test,...
We introduce TurboMamba, a language-model architecture for faster inference, faster training, and better token prediction. A global Mamba-3 model runs once per completed token block. A small Transformer uses this global context and earlier tokens within the block to predict the next token. Three lightweight additions i...

This work studies how much activation data SAEs need by training four SAE architectures on three language models with budgets ranging from 5M tokens to a 500M-token reference, and measures two notions of convergence: functional behavior on standard evaluations and one-to-one reproducibility of learned features.
Motivated by information-organization sculpting, we study spectral summaries and scalar learning curves in centered quadratic networks. We construct analytic positive input densities with Gaussian one- and two-coordinate marginals. Their complete fourth-moment operators are orthogonally intertwined by a map fixing the...
Global streamflow forecasting supports flood preparedness, yet data-driven models trained on reanalysis lose skill when driven by operational forecasts, increasingly so with lead time. AIFL addresses this shift with a two-stage transfer-learning recipe and a deterministic LSTM, but it feeds one forecast lead time into...
Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) is credited with gains beyond the domain its rewards check, such as higher MMLU accuracy after training on mathematics. Such accuracies are usually read out of the model's text by an answer extractor. A model that learns to write its answer where the extractor looks...
These findings provide the first evidence that a mechanistic activation-level intervention can mitigate the compliance gap in an alignment faking setup and identify a form of deceptive behaviour that may broaden the understanding of the different forms of deceptive behaviour in LLMs.
This work collapses the causal history into exactly $n$ recurrent states, each updated by one rank-one outer product per token and independent of context length $N, and factorizes each term into a tensor-power inner product, which collapses the causal history into exactly $n$ recurrent states.
Sampling from continuous flow-based generators such as flow matching models requires numerical ODE or SDE integration, making inference cost depend on the number of function evaluations (NFEs). In practice, the sampling budget is inherited from prior work or selected through expensive FID-versus-NFE sweeps, using FID t...
Circuit extraction identifies model components whose presence preserves a target behavior under ablation, but preserving behavior does not single out one circuit. We study this in a synthetic Lean tactic-prediction benchmark with fixed proof rules and randomized surface form. Across dense and weight-sparse checkpoints...
The new approach, known as FLEX, could lead to more intuitive, interactive household and assistive robots.
By learning how matter moves, the WorldParticle system could assist with developing soft robots, medicines, and more.
A machine-learning approach called CheMeleon provides a practical way to develop new drugs or other molecules with much less detailed, expensive experimentation.
