Sign-Aware Gated Sparse Autoencoders: Modeling Anticorrelated Features with Bi-Jump-ReLU Activations
SA-GSAE with Bi-Jump-ReLU enables one latent to encode both polarities of anticorrelated features, Pareto-dominating or matching full-width gated SAEs while reducing dead latents by up to 500x on some LLM hookpoints.
