Probes predicting future behaviors from intermediate steps enable Future Probe Controlled Generation for steering large reasoning models with minimal quality degradation.
Query Lens extends Logit Lens to interpret sparse features via key-value analysis and indirect effects, yielding coherent token signatures where Logit Lens fails, and proposes the Subspace Channel Hypothesis.
Introduces BMC, a manifold bandit framework that organizes problems into a hierarchical task tree and applies Bayesian learning to balance productivity, diversity, and utility in LLM curriculum sampling.
Qwen-Scope provides open-source sparse autoencoders for Qwen models that function as practical interfaces for steering, evaluating, data workflows, and optimizing large language models.
Trains and releases SAEs for Qwen3-1.7B/4B/8B models with layer-wise coverage and demonstrates causal steering of refusal via selected features.
