cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

  • Probe method combining causal interventions and structural analysis, supported by pyvene's activation collection
  • Opening question: does the rich geometric structure of neural representations have a causal role in behavior?
  • Causal Mechanismconcept0.765
    Function determining the value of a variable based on its causal parents in an acyclic causal model.
  • The structural-realist grounding for self-evidencing after the bounded self is relinquished.
  • The mechanism by which one sequence calls upon another, ensuring that linked centers are created, analogous to function calls in arithmetic.
  • Causal Tracingconcept0.743
    Mechanistic interpretability technique for locating factual associations, mentioned as future work direction.
  • Causal Invarianceconcept0.738
    Property that causal mechanisms remain stable across environments; desirable for OOD.
  • Central question: does geometry in activation space causally determine behavior?
