A transformer can be built from operators that are legible by construction -- bounded, named units that read as fuzzy set operations rather than dense activations -- but legibility must be pressed for during training, and the pressure has a failure mode. A crispness penalty meant…
A companion paper showed that a transformer's feed-forward layer can be rebuilt from explicit fuzzy set operations - intersection, set-difference, and a self-forgetting sequence quantifier - so its hidden units read as named logical operators at no cost to language-model quality.…
A transformer's feed-forward (FFN) sublayer materializes the distinctions attention gathers, yet gives no account of what it computes. In a parameter-neutral replacement, each hidden unit is an explicit fuzzy set operation on sigmoid-bounded [0,1] memberships: intersection A*B an…
