Projects

Research investigating how model quantization affects sparse autoencoders (SAEs). Found SAEs transfer across precisions (99% correlation), code generation degrades 50% at INT4 while knowledge retrieval survives, and undercomplete SAEs (fewer features than model dimension) transfer 2.3x better than overcomplete ones.
