Findings

• IC-135Linear relational embeddings for factual relations form in OLMo-7B, OLMo-1B, and GPT-J when subject-object co-occurrence frequency exceeds model-specific thresholds, with r=0.82 correlation between log co-occurrence and causality across all pretraining stages [source]
• IC-136LRE quality metrics from OLMo-7B predict pretraining term frequencies in GPT-J (trained on different data) with approximately 70% within-magnitude accuracy for object frequencies, outperforming log-probability-only features by about 30% [source]
• IC-370Knowledge entropy (sparsity of FFN memory coefficients) decreases consistently during pretraining for OLMo 1B, 7B, and Pythia 1.4B, and this decrease strongly correlates with reduced knowledge acquisition and increased forgetting in continual learning [source]
