A Coin Flip Per Token: Bernoulli Sparse Steering of Large Language Models

View original on arxiv.org

Overview

arXiv:2607.05615v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Activation steering via sparse autoencoders (SAEs) enables behavioral control of large language models without task-specific fine-tuning, but standard methods apply the steering signal at every generated token, incurring constant per-token perturbation that risks degrading fluency. We ask: is dense intervention necessary? We introduce Stochastic Token Steering (STS), which gates each token independently with probability $p$, and Stochastic Block St
