A new research paper explores the behavior of $\beta$-Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) and their ability to act as effective theories. The study found that increasing regularization in $\beta$-VAEs effectively collapses low-utility latent coordinates, functioning as a spectral cutoff. While nonlinear interactions in fully connected VAEs trained on WorldClim data shift these collapse points, the general ordering of utility is preserved, indicating that the spectral cutoff still acts as a utility cutoff.
