Contribution Weights combine attention, value magnitude, and directional alignment to measure token influence more faithfully than attention alone, and show attention sinks actively suppress information via a convex sink-rate to output-norm relationship.
Linear probes recover day-of-year from LM activations for temporal reasoning but are orthogonal to the model's causal 4D subspace identified by DAS, with the angle matching the Haar-uniform random null, replicated across scales and families.
RankUp raises effective rank of representations in deep MetaFormer recommenders via randomized splitting and multi-embeddings, delivering 2-5% GMV gains in production deployments at Weixin.

When and How Long? The Readout-Mediator Angle in Temporal Reasoning
Linear probes recover day-of-year from LM activations for temporal reasoning but are orthogonal to the model's causal 4D subspace identified by DAS, with the angle matching the Haar-uniform random null, replicated across scales and families.
