  • Fundamental operation for causal abstraction analysis; forces neurons to take values from source inputs to create counterfactuals.
  • Extends interchange interventions to non-standard bases by rotating representations, intervening in rotated subspaces, then rotating back.
  • Proportion of aligned interchange interventions with equivalent high-level and low-level effects; graded measure of causal abstraction.
  • Differentiable training objective minimized when a high-level model is an abstraction of a neural network under a given alignment.
  • Intervention mode where interventions are applied sequentially, each building on the previous one
  • Intervention mode where multiple interventions are applied simultaneously to the same base computation graph
  • Property that additive modifications to activations affect all downstream computations, enabling tractable behavioral control
  • Intervention targeting specific dimensional subsets of activation vectors rather than full representations
