Ranking latent-memory fragments by middle-layer attention density and keeping only the top few more than doubles long-term knowledge-retention accuracy (43.0% vs. 17.4%/17.6%) versus MemoryLLM and M+.
Linear probes on frozen LLM hidden states recover an approximate remaining-output-length signal that is decodable at prompt-end, transfers across datasets, and shifts upward at retraction tokens.
Empirical evaluation on the PLUME benchmark shows steering vectors vary widely in trait expressibility, degrade on task transfer, and lose effectiveness when multiple vectors are composed.
Contrastive Logit Steering isolates a linear refusal direction in safety-aligned LLMs, achieving higher jailbreak success than activation steering and enabling bidirectional control without retraining.
COAST applies contrastive conceptors to steer VLA hidden states into task-specific success subspaces, yielding over 20% simulation and 40% real-robot success rate gains across three distinct policies.
Stable personality vectors in LLMs function as intrinsic guardrails, with ablation increasing emergent misalignment above 40% and amplification reducing it below 3%, enabling zero-shot transfer from aligned to corrupted models.
SIREN identifies safety neurons via linear probing on internal LLM layers and combines them with adaptive weighting to detect harm, outperforming prior guard models with 250x fewer parameters.
A geometric 1-form on token embeddings has curvature that couples to semantic world models in language models, as evidenced by clustering on chess board regions and piece importance.
