## Summary

Researchers from UIUC, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Brown University, and the Max Planck Institute propose DSReg (Dependency-Sparsity Regularization), which can be added directly to an already-trained LeJEPA so that each learned dimension corresponds to a real-world variable, without reconstruction of observations, a decoder, or labels.
