A researcher has published a paper detailing a new method for mechanistic interpretability, focusing on disentangling the function of individual neurons within a convolutional neural network. The technique involves analyzing the Hadamard product of a neuron's receptive field and its weights to identify the patterns it detects, revealing distinct clusters for concepts like cars, cats, and letters. The study observed that neurons detecting abstract concepts like letters had dependent neurons also firing on the same concept, suggesting a deliberate effort by gradient descent to organize these patterns.
