Intervention attribution itself is gradient-estimable, and gradient information can be used to approximate the impact of intervention features on the model output, without actually running intervention experiments.

Unverified"Correlation does not equal causation" is the fundamental limitation of traditional interpretability methods that infer model behavior by observing statistical associations between activation values and outputs.79% similarUnverifiedPrediction tasks estimate outcomes from observed features without changing the system, for which correlation is sufficient; decision/intervention tasks must establish a causal structure and characterize interventions using the do-operator.76% similarUnverifiedThe idea of controlled interventions originates from do-calculus in the field of causal inference.74% similarUnverifiedThe Bayesian tool graph simulator can estimate the impact on subsequent success probability of choosing tool X instead of Y at a given step without actual execution, thereby generating counterfactual contrastive samples.73% similarUnverifiedThe core assumption of the research is that the residual stream representations inside the model have already implicitly encoded information about whether a task will succeed.73% similar
