New 'Perturbation' method probes language model representations

Researchers have introduced a novel method called "Perturbation" to better understand representation learning in deep language models. This technique involves fine-tuning a model on a single adversarial example and observing how this change affects its responses to other inputs. Unlike previous methods, Perturbation makes no geometric assumptions and can accurately identify representations in trained models, suggesting that language models acquire linguistic abstractions through experience and generalize along representational lines.
