Channel-wise Vector Quantization

arXiv:2605. 26089v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present Channel-wise Vector Quantization (CVQ), a novel image tokenization paradigm that replaces patch-wise tokens with channel-wise tokens.

Rethinking Visual Autoregressive Sampling with Information-Grounding Guidance

arXiv:2509. 23876v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autoregressive (AR) models based on next-scale prediction have emerged as a powerful tool for image generation, but they face a critical weakness: information inconsistencies between patches across timesteps introduced by progressive resolution scaling.

Information-Regularized Attention for Visual-Centric Reasoning

arXiv:2607. 00434v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) have become a paradigm for multimodal learning, yet remain unstable due to object hallucination, weak visual grounding, and catastrophic forgetting after full-parameter instruction tuning.

Same Predictions, Different Reasons: The Effect of Quantization on Model Explanations

arXiv:2607. 22872v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) has become a practical solution for deploying deep learning models on resource-constrained edge devices by compressing high-precision floating-point weights into low-precision representations without requiring retraining.
