Abstract

This paper challenges the Linear Representation Hypothesis by demonstrating that text-to-image models represent intermediate visual states nonlinearly.

Reality Card

Core Claim

KANSteer provides a more accurate and interpretable method for traversing concept representations in text-to-image models compared to linear steering.

Method / Result

KANSteer shows that activation trajectories deviate from straight lines, offering smoother traversals of intermediate attributes.

Limitations

The generalizability of KANSteer across all types of visual concepts remains untested.
