Qwen3-0.6B

inside names of journals and institutions

A neuron in layer 27 of Qwen3-0.6B. Its strongest snippets are mixed: they peak on different tokens. It is featured, so it has steering outputs.

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the small connecting word inside a formal name, such as 'of' in 'New England Journal of Medicine' or 'de' in 'Banco Nacional de Cuba'. When turned up, the model produced loose, unrelated sentences, and when turned down it repeated the word 'Math'.

Written by Claude from this neuron's activations and steering outputs. Confidence: medium. Think it is wrong? Flag it (opens a prefilled issue on GitHub).

Fires most on

The text windows where this neuron's activation was highest. Amber marks positive activation; the outlined token is the peak. Hover a token for its strength.

Activation histogram

How often this neuron fires at each strength. Almost always it does close to nothing (the tall bars in the middle); the snippets above are the rare moments it fired hard, amber for positive and blue for negative.
