Welcome new CG members! Please do introduce yourself to the list if you like, with a brief pointer to any relevant background and interest in the subject of AI KR, Many join to learn about AI KR, so feel free to just browse the list archives or check the background In a nutsheel this CG is about understanding current challenges and developments n AI.ML from a symbolic KR perspective Notes *not complete, and not always up to date: https://www.w3.org/community/aikr/wiki/Main_Page https://www.w3.org/community/aikr/wiki/How_to_Contribute_to_the_CG Today's topic https://www.w3.org/community/aikr/wiki/Recursive_Feature_Machines A polite reminder that KR in this CG is about* natural language * ( *NOT about mathematics) Today's topic * Recursive Feature Machine *as a universal method for concept extraction transforms our approach to AI interpretability and control https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.03708 GitHub code (related neural controllers): https://github.com/dmbeaglehole/neural_controllers - This builds on earlier RFM foundations like Radhakrishnan et al. (2022) but focuses on interpretability applications. Recursive Feature Machine as a universal method for concept extraction transforms our approach to AI interpretability and control *...method that unveils these hidden internal representations, offering new avenues for monitoring and steering AI behavior with unprecedented precision.....concept representations are not static artifacts tied to a single language or task domain. Instead, they show remarkable transferability across different linguistic frameworks. This implies that fundamental semantic structures learned by AI models can be reliably mapped and manipulated regardless of the language context, a feature that holds enormous potential for multilingual applications and universal AI interpretability. Moreover, the technique allows for the combination of multiple concept representations, enabling multi-concept steering where several streams of thought or ideas can be concurrently navigated within a model’s reasoning process.*
