NLA warmstart data (Qwen3-8B, layer 24)

Supervised-finetuning data for the two active natural-language-autoencoder (NLA) families. An NLA is an encoder/decoder pair over a language model's residual stream: a verbalizer (AV) turns one activation vector into English, and a reconstructor (AR) maps that English back to the activation. These are the warmstart sets the AV and AR are trained on before RL.

Why this repo is gated

Roughly half the 8-bullet data and all of the focus data derive from AI2's WildChat, which is gated and licensed under the AI2 ImpACT License. The detokenized_text_truncated column contains that conversation text verbatim. Access here is gated to mirror WildChat's own terms — please honour them.

The remaining ~51% of the 8-bullet data derives from FineFineWeb (public web text).

Contents

path rows what
free8/av_sft.parquet 131,312 8-bullet verbalizer SFT (~49% WildChat / 51% FineFineWeb)
free8/ar_sft.parquet 66,047 8-bullet reconstructor SFT
focus/av_sft.parquet 249,746 focus 4-aspect verbalizer SFT (100% WildChat)
focus/ar_sft.parquet focus reconstructor SFT

Every parquet ships with its <name>.nla_meta.yaml sidecar, which is required — it carries the injection token ids, prompt templates, injection_scale and mse_scale that the loaders assert against the live tokenizer at startup. Keep the sidecar next to the parquet.

Schema

column type meaning
prompt list of chat messages the instruction given to the model (contains the injection marker; not the source text)
response string the gold explanation to be learned
activation_vector fixed_size_list[4096] the Qwen3-8B layer-24 residual-stream activation, raw / unnormalized
n_raw_tokens int tokens of context behind the activation
activation_layer int 24 throughout
doc_id string <corpus parquet>:<split>:<row> — the source row
detokenized_text_truncated string the source text the activation was taken from

Activations are stored raw: normalization happens at injection time (injection_scale) and at loss time (mse_scale), both read from the sidecar.

The two families

  • free8 (8-bullet) — a free-form compositional verbalizer: 8 bullets whose per-bullet reconstructions sum to the activation. Half web text, half chat.
  • focus (4-aspect) — a WildChat verbalizer with four designated components: provenance/context, persona, user information, and model goal.

Both target Qwen3-8B at layer 24.
