Studies use bespoke evaluations, lack a shared theoretical basis, and rarely define the elementary causal units that make up a "mechanism." This survey, published in Computational Linguistics, treats MI as recovering causal graphs that… ## All works 4 works of theirs in our library, the most cited first; 2 with a page here, the others link their original until we summarise them. 1. **[Function Vectors in Large Language Models ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.15213) arXiv:2310.15213 · no summary yet**Eric Todd et al.*2023 · 127 citations* 2. **[Linearity of Relation Decoding in Transformer Language Models ↗](https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.09124) arXiv:2308.09124 · no summary yet**Evan Hernandez et al.*2023 · 82 citations* 3.
