This work builds on recent papers that have used SAEs to uncover interpretable concepts learned by pLMs. We use activation patching to ask: which concepts are causally necessary for the model to perform contact prediction? For our two case studies, we find an explainable, sparse circuit

New work from my group using the tools of mechanistic interpretability to dissect the contact prediction capabilities of protein language models. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Nice to see this systematically evaluated. Particularly interesting is the variable performance across different measurement types
