cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edgeEntities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
- The use of interventions (rather than correlations) to establish a causal link between representation geometry and behavioral geometry.
- Method of shifting hidden state activations along probe directions to cause the model to treat false statements as true and vice versa; evaluated on OOD inputs
- Whether an internal direction causally controls a target behavior, verified by intervention success
- Intervening in model forward pass by adding/subtracting probe direction to group (b) hidden states to flip truth judgments
- Property that additive modifications to activations affect all downstream computations, enabling tractable behavioral control
- Property that causal mechanisms remain stable across environments; desirable for OOD.
- Traditional mechanistic accounts (Danto, Chisholm, Goldman) that Juarrero critiques as resting on outdated Newtonian causality.
- Function determining the value of a variable based on its causal parents in an acyclic causal model.
