autumn and fall season words

What this neuron does

This neuron fires on the words fall and autumn when they mean the season. Turning it up did not clearly bring out seasonal text, though it did produce some weather talk.

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.

1. #1 peak

   The pumpkin patch will be watered and pampered until fall when each pumpkin will then be boiled, baked, and blended in the school kitchen

2. #2 peak

   . Winter frosts are rare in the coastal region, but not uncommon in the inland valleys and foothills. Except for very rare Summer or Fall rainstorms, almost all precipitation (approximately 85 percent) occurs during the

3. #3 peak

   . Thus for the first time in the world, tektites were found in the meteorite crater.⏎Kazachstan met us with good shiny weather. Autumn only began to come to this country.⏎I traveled there with my friend Serge.

4. #4 peak

   These crops include the following:⏎Good winter hardy crops for central Piedmont⏎Good germination in mid-August:⏎As we start setting planting dates on our fall calendar, we notice that many vegetables have planting dates that are in mid-August

5. #5 peak

   often in juniper-oak woodlands, grasslands, and dry deserts.⏎Pads, flowers, and fruits⏎Flavonoids, octadecadienoic acid, and hexadecanoic acid⏎Most species of

6. #6 peak

   their weight, ie they tend not to stick totally upright on the ends of the stem. Nodding thistle is a biennial weed, typical establishing in autumn in pastures that have been damaged by drought over summer. In autumn with the

Steering

Push this neuron up or down while the model writes, and watch what changes. The outputs were generated ahead of time, so nothing runs in your browser.

Most negative on

Where the activation went furthest below zero. Blue marks negative activation. Many neurons mean something different in each direction.

1. #1 peak

   0 degrees C).⏎Electrostatic spark discharge results from the internal molecular friction that generates high-voltage electric charges such as where

2. #2 peak

   of one of the numbers, and then sum the results together.⏎There is a single positive integer T on the first line of input (equal to about 1000). It stands for the number of expressions to follow. Each expression consists

Which neurons in earlier layers feed this one, and which later ones it feeds. Amber links excite, blue links suppress; longer bars are stronger.

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.

Logit lens

The words this neuron nudges the model toward (amber) or away from (blue) when it fires. A hint, not a label: many neurons work through later layers instead.
