Orbit Detection Algorithm

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

• Binary Detection Taskmethod0.741
  Task paradigm from prior work asking 'Did you detect an injected thought?' via YES/NO logit comparison; shown here to be confounded
• thought detectionconcept0.719
  Task of detecting a model's internal thoughts; found by Lindsey (2026) to peak at ~2/3 depth in transformers.
• OPTICS Algorithmmethod0.715
  Density-based clustering used within spectral coarse-graining approach.
• Prefill detection taskmethod0.713
  Task where a random word is prefilled as the assistant's response, then the model is asked whether it intended to say that word, testing introspection on prior intentions.
• Trajectory Filteringmethod0.710
  Strategic filtering procedure that removes invalid trajectories and maintains optimal positive-to-negative trajectory ratio to stabilize training.
• Anomaly detection mechanismconcept0.708
  A possible circuit that triggers when activations deviate from expected values, hypothesized to underlie noticing injected thoughts.
• Identification of algorithms implemented in attention layers, distributed across attention headsfinding0.707
  VPD successfully recovered interpretable attention algorithms (previous-token behavior, syntax-boundary routing) in weight space without requiring manual decomposition across heads.
• Euclidean Algorithmconcept0.705
  Ancient algorithm from Euclid's Elements (circa 300 B.C.) that computes greatest common divisor; shown to structurally parallel Bjorklund's rhythm generation algorithm.
