## Usage
|
| 59 |
+
|
| 60 |
+
```python
|
| 61 |
+
from transformers import AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM, AutoTokenizer
|
| 62 |
+
import torch
|
| 63 |
+
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
|
| 64 |
+
|
| 65 |
+
# Load base model
|
| 66 |
+
model = AutoModelForSeq2SeqLM.from_pretrained("google/t5gemma-2-270m-270m")
|
| 67 |
+
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/t5gemma-2-270m-270m")
|
| 68 |
+
|
| 69 |
+
# Load SAE for a specific layer
|
| 70 |
+
sae_path = hf_hub_download(
|
| 71 |
+
repo_id="mindchain/t5gemma2-sae-all-layers",
|
| 72 |
+
filename="encoder/sae_encoder_00.pt"
|
| 73 |
+
)
|
| 74 |
+
sae = torch.load(sae_path, map_location="cpu")
|
| 75 |
+
|
| 76 |
+
# SAE forward pass
|
| 77 |
+
def forward_sae(sae, activations):
|
| 78 |
+
features = torch.relu(activations @ sae['W_enc'] + sae['b_enc'])
|
| 79 |
+
reconstructed = features @ sae['W_dec'] + sae['b_dec']
|
| 80 |
+
return reconstructed, features
|
| 81 |
+
|
| 82 |
+
# Example: Extract activations and run through SAE
|
| 83 |
+
inputs = tokenizer("Translate to German: Hello world", return_tensors="pt")
|
| 84 |
+
with torch.no_grad():
|
| 85 |
+
# Get encoder layer 0 output (you'd need to hook this)
|
| 86 |
+
activations = ... # hook self_attn.o_proj of encoder layer 0
|
| 87 |
+
recon, features = forward_sae(sae, activations)
|
| 88 |
+
```
|
| 89 |
+
|
| 90 |
+
## SAE Checkpoint Structure
|
| 91 |
+
|
| 92 |
+
Each checkpoint file contains:

+
```python
|
| 95 |
+

|
| 96 |
+
'model_name': 'google/t5gemma-2-270m-270m',
|
| 97 |
+
'layer_type': 'encoder' or 'decoder',
|
| 98 |
+
'layer_idx': int,
|
| 99 |
+
'd_in': 640,
|
| 100 |
+
'd_sae': 4096,
|
| 101 |
+
'W_enc': Tensor([640, 4096]), # Encoder weights
|
| 102 |
+
'b_enc': Tensor([4096]), # Encoder bias
|
| 103 |
+
'W_dec': Tensor([4096, 640]), # Decoder weights
|
| 104 |
+
'b_dec': Tensor([640]), # Decoder bias
|
| 105 |
+
'history': {
|
| 106 |
+
'loss': [...], # Loss per epoch
|
| 107 |
+
'l0': [...] # Sparsity (active features) per epoch
|
| 108 |
+
}
|
| 109 |
+
}
|
| 110 |
+
```
|
| 111 |
+
|
| 112 |
+
## Training Details
|
| 113 |
+
|
| 114 |
+
- **Dataset**: 1500 diverse text samples, repeated across epochs
|
| 115 |
+
- **Hook Point**: Self-attention output projection (`model.{encoder,decoder}.layers.{N}.self_attn.o_proj`)
|
| 116 |
+
- **Training Duration**: ~2 hours on single GPU
|
| 117 |
+
- **Final Metrics** (example, layer 0):
|
| 118 |
+
- Loss: ~0.0014
|
| 119 |
+
- L0 (active features): ~1367/4096 (~33% sparsity)
