A new paper from Hugging Face explores the concept of "concept dimension" in neural representations, questioning the reliability of common measurement methods. The research demonstrates that iterative erasure techniques, often used to quantify concept dimensions, can yield different results based on how a representation is reparameterized. This suggests that the measured quantities are dependent on the specific procedure used, rather than being intrinsic properties of the concept itself. The study uses V-JEPA2 features as a case study to illustrate these findings. AI
