Topology tool Mapper reveals how language models encode ambiguity

Researchers have introduced Mapper, a topological data analysis tool, to better understand how language models handle ambiguity. Applied to RoBERTa-Large, Mapper revealed that fine-tuning reorganizes the model's embedding space into distinct regions that align with predictions, even for complex cases. While over 98% of these regions showed high prediction purity, alignment with ground truth labels decreased for ambiguous data, highlighting a conflict between the model's structural confidence and label uncertainty. This approach offers a more insightful diagnostic than traditional methods like PCA or UMAP for analyzing model behavior in subjective NLP tasks. AI

影响 Provides a novel method for diagnosing model ambiguity and potentially improving performance on subjective NLP tasks.

    When Annotators Disagree, Topology Explains: Mapper, a Topological Tool for Exploring Text Embedding Geometry and Ambiguity

    arXiv:2510.17548v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Language models are often evaluated with scalar metrics like accuracy, but such measures fail to capture how models internally represent ambiguity, especially when human annotators disagree. We propose a topological perspective …
