Title: Residualized Temporal Sparse Autoencoders for Interpreting Diffusion Models

Abstract:
arXiv:2605.27813v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-to-image diffusion models generate images through an iterative denoising process, so internal neural layers produce trajectories of activations rather than single static representations. Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) have recently been used to decompose diffusion activations into interpretable feature directions, but most approaches analyze activations at individual timesteps or condition on time rather than learning directly from full activati
