During November 2024, Mitra Fantos developed the foundational Representation Surgery feature for steering functions in language models within the davidbau/sidn-handbook repository. Leveraging machine learning and natural language processing expertise, Mitra formalized a mathematical framework to align representation statistics, specifically means and covariances, to guide model outputs. The implementation included initial experiments in HTML that demonstrated measurable reductions in gender bias and toxicity, while improving the efficiency of the steering approach. This work provided an end-to-end solution from concept to experimental validation, enabling safer and more controllable language model behavior and supporting the deployment of steerable models in user-facing features.

November 2024: Delivered the foundational 'Representation Surgery' feature for steering functions in language models in davidbau/sidn-handbook. Implemented a theoretical framework to align representation statistics (means and covariances) with the aim of guiding outputs, accompanied by initial experiments showing reduced gender bias and toxicity and improved efficiency. The work was shipped with commit 4c39306180f0390309dd9a5631790e6a50198720 ('steering - representation surgery'), marking end-to-end progress from concept to experimental validation. No major bugs fixed this month. Business value: enables safer, more controllable LM behavior with measurable bias reduction while maintaining performance; strengthens our ability to deploy steerable LMs in user-facing features.
