# Decide whether featlib's dictionaries are fit for the audit of four new models, and deliver the dictionaries ## Objective Four new toy models (`/task/models/audit/P,Q,R,S`) must be audited before they are used downstream. The audit inspects a *feature dictionary* of each model's hidden layer: a set of unit directions in activation space, meant to be one direction per feature the model represents. The interpretability team has shipped an extraction method, `featlib`, with a validation score, and proposes to adopt it as the audit's extraction step (`/task/docs/METHOD.md`). Your job is the research decision behind that proposal: 1. Evaluate `featlib` where the truth is known. The four development models in `/task/models/dev/A,B,C,D` ship their true feature directions (`features.npy`), so for them you can measure what the audit actually needs — **recovery**, defined in `/task/tools/recovery.py` — and compare it with what `featlib.validate` reports. 2. Decide whether to adopt the shipped method as is, adopt it with changes, or replace it. You may modify featlib, tune it, or write your own extraction method; anything that runs in this sandbox is allowed. 3. Deliver the best dictionary you can for each audit model and say, per model, whether the dictionary is **audit-ready**: the audit treats a dictionary as audit-ready when its recovery against the model's true features is at least 0.90. The audit models' true features are withheld from you; they are used to grade your dictionaries and your audit-ready calls. You must therefore decide from evidence you can gather (development models, the activations themselves, properties of your method) how far to trust each dictionary. === /task: docs featlib instruction.md models tools /task/docs: ACTIVATIONS.md METHOD.md /task/featlib: __init__.py __pycache__ extract.py sae.py validate.py /task/featlib/__pycache__: __init__.cpython-312.pyc sae.cpython-312.pyc validate.cpython-312.pyc /task/models: audit dev /task/models/audit: P Q R S /task/models/audit/P: activations.npy meta.json /task/models/audit/Q: activations.npy meta.json /task/models/audit/R: activations.npy meta.json /task/models/audit/S: activations.npy meta.json /task/models/dev: A B C D /task/models/dev/A: activations.npy features.npy meta.json

# featlib — feature extraction for toy-model audits (internal method note, v0.3)
## Purpose
Before a toy model is cleared for use in the downstream study, an auditor inspects the features it represents in its
hidden layer. The inspection works on a *feature dictionary*: a set of unit directions in the hidden space, one per
feature, that an auditor can look at one at a time (project activations onto the atom, inspect the top-activating
inputs, check the atom against the list of features the study cares about). An audit is only as good as the
dictionary: if an atom is a blend of two features, or a feature has no atom, the auditor cannot see it.
## Method
`featlib.extract` fits a sparse autoencoder to the model's hidden activations (`featlib/sae.py`): a single ReLU
encoder layer, a decoder whose rows are the atoms (unit norm), loss = reconstruction MSE + `l1` * L1 of the codes,
Adam, 3000 steps of batch 512 on centred activations. Defaults: `n_atoms = 2 * hidden_dim`, `l1 = 0.03`, `seed = 0`.
## Validation protocol
`featlib.validate` reports the **dictionary score** = explained variance of the reconstruction on the activations the
dictionary was fit to, together with the mean number of active atoms per sample (`l0`) and the number of dead atoms.
A dictionary is **accepted** when `dictionary_score >= 0.95` and `l0 <= 0.75 * n_atoms` (the codes are not fully dense).
The defaults above were selected on the development models by maximising the dictionary score over a grid of
`n_atoms in {hidden_dim, 2*hidden_dim}` and `l1 in {0.1, 0.03, 0.01}`. Scores at the selected defaults:
| model | hidden_dim | n_atoms | dictionary_score | l0 | dead_atoms | accepted |
|-------|-----------:|--------:|-----------------:|---:|-----------:|----------|
| dev/A | see models/dev/A/meta.json | 2*hidden_dim | >= 0.99 | — | 0 | yes |
| dev/B | | 2*hidden_dim | >= 0.99 | — | 0 | yes |
| dev/C | | 2*hidden_dim | >= 0.99 | — | 0 | yes |
| dev/D | | 2*hidden_dim | >= 0.99 | — | 0 | yes |
(Exact numbers: run `python3 -m featlib.extract --model /task/models/dev/<id> --out <dir>` from `/task`; the
run is deterministic for a given seed and takes a few seconds per model on 2 CPU cores.)
## Proposal
Adopt `featlib.extract` with the defaults above as the standard extraction step for the audit of the four new models
in `models/audit/`, and treat a dictionary that passes `featlib.validate` as audit-ready.
====
# What is in a model directory
Each model is a small trained network whose hidden layer we study. We ship the hidden-layer activations, not the
network: `activations.npy` is an `n_samples x hidden_dim` float32 array, one row per input sampled from the model's
own input distribution. The networks were trained with an importance-weighted reconstruction objective on sparse
non-negative input features; the number of input features exceeds `hidden_dim`, so features share the hidden space.
Input distributions differ between models (feature frequencies, co-occurrence structure, importance weights, and in
one case measurement noise added to the recorded activations); `meta.json` does not describe them.
`meta.json`: `model_id`, `hidden_dim`, `n_samples`, `readout` (output nonlinearity of the trained network), `notes`.
Development models (`models/dev/*`) additionally ship ground truth, which audit models do not:
- `features.npy`: `n_features x hidden_dim` float32. Row i is the unit direction in hidden space along which input
feature i moves the activation (the model's representation of that feature). Only features the network actually
represents are listed.
- `meta.json` also has `n_features`, `feature_frequency` (fraction of samples in which feature i is active) and
`feature_importance` (the weight of feature i in the training objective), aligned with the rows of `features.npy`.
`tools/recovery.py` scores a dictionary against `features.npy` (see its docstring for the exact definition); it is the
definition the audit uses to decide whether a dictionary is trustworthy.

Agent's final summary.
I evaluated featlib on the four development models where ground truth exists and found that its validation score is uninformative for the audit: all shipped-default dictionaries are accepted (score ≥ 0.9966) yet recovery is 0.9999 (A), 0.5833 (B), 0.9877 (C), 0.7280 (D) — so dev_accepted_but_low_recovery = ["B","D"]. Diagnosis: the defaults use too few atoms (2*hidden_dim = 24 < 32 features for B) and too weak an L1 (0.03 → dense feature-splitting codes), and measurement noise (dev D) stalls recovery at 0.87. I built a modified pipeline — same SAE learner but K = 4*hidden_dim, l1 = 0.1, plus a noise-gated refit (sign-folded top-2%-projection mean, applied only when the 5th-percentile centred sample norm > 0.2, since the refit hurts co-occurring-feature models like C) — which achieves recovery 0.996/0.981/0.975/0.987 on dev A/B/C/D. I fingerprinted the audit models into the validated regimes (P↔B noiseless many-features, Q↔A sparse antipodal, R↔C co-occurrence, S↔D noisy) using observable statistics only (noise floor, spectrum, atom kurtosis, cross-seed stability, antipodal-pair counts), and confirmed the two uncovered regime combinations with synthetic ground-truth simulations (S-like: 0.998; R-like: 0.97–1.00). Deliverables: dictionaries for P (48×12), Q (64×16), R (48×12), S (64×16) from this pipeline; answer.json with exact dev numbers, estimated recoveries P 0.96 / Q 0.97 / R 0.94 / S 0.95, all four called audit_ready = true, and verdict adopt_with_changes; summary.md documenting findings, decision, and full provenance for every number.
