Modern text encoders resist second-order collapse under mean pooling because token embeddings concentrate tightly within texts, and this resistance correlates with stronger downstream performance.
Decoding alignment metrics can remain high and unchanged even when encoding manifold topology is causally altered, so they do not imply similar function or computation across neural populations.
SPIN improves posterior inference under model misspecification in SBI by learning parameter-relevant information-preserving domain transfers from unpaired unlabeled real-world data.
PCA suggested clustering in fossil teeth data on a nonlinear manifold, but t-SNE and persistent homology show a ring structure with no clustering, supported by a unit-circle generative model whose arcsine distance distribution matches observations qualitatively.
