Overview
Investigating whether cross-model probe-transfer failures arise from coordinate mismatch or task-conditioned differences in representations.
The project examines how cross-model alignment behaves on held-out tasks, with the aim of separating improvements in coordinate matching from evidence that a learned representation generalizes.
