Embedding model performance on MTEB tasks correlates strongly with nearest-neighbor overlap and ICA magnitude differences in their embedding spaces.
Provides sufficient conditions for successful distillation of combinatorial optimization tasks into DP-aligned graph neural networks under the linear representation hypothesis for the source model.
LLMs represent semantic relations geometrically via embedding distance and direction; a linear Polar Probe decodes these structures from middle-layer activations and generalizes to new entities.
GUARD-IT removes forget-set influence from LLMs via training-free, gated residual-stream rotations at inference, matching gradient unlearning baselines without weight edits.
Activation steering is cast as constrained optimization that minimizes collateral damage by weighting perturbations according to the empirical second-moment matrix of activations instead of assuming isotropy.
