Transformer Geometry Observatory TGO-IV: Developmental Topology Observatory
Transformers have had a profound impact on the world of language processing and computer vision. As efforts to answer the million-dollar question of ``How does a Transformer learn?" have been increasing, existing interpretability studies primarily analyze representations at isolated layers or the network as a whole, while the developmental evolution of individual representations and its manifolds across transformer layers remains underexplored. With this work, we aim at providing a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of representations as the representation point cloud transforms across the layers; thereby attempting to isolate layers or establish a trend which comes closer to justify...
