Gradient Under Microscope: Benchmarking Resource Utilization of Memory-Efficient Gradient Computation Methods

AI training's rising resource intensity is straining electricity supplies and carbon budgets, motivating systematic study of memory-efficient training on constrained hardware. We benchmark five gradient optimizers (SGD, Adam, Adagrad, Adadelta, and Conjugate Gradient Descent) under three memory strategies (standard training, gradient checkpointing, and gradient accumulation) across four transformer architectures (ViT, ModernBERT, Llama 3.

Efficient Remote Sensing Instance Segmentation with Linear-Time State Space Distilled Visual Foundation Models

The computational complexity of Transformers scales quadratically with the number of tokens, which significantly constrains the efficiency of vision models, particularly recent ViT-based foundation models in dense prediction tasks. Instance segmentation, a typical dense visual prediction task in the remote sensing field, faces similar challenges.

Decoder-Agnostic Token Merging for Vision Transformers: A Systematic Study of G2TM

The paper studies Graph-Guided Token Merging (G2TM), a module that reduces token count in Vision Transformers. It evaluates G2TM across multiple segmentation frameworks and decoder types, finding that its performance gains are tied to the encoder rather than the decoder. The authors report consistent reductions in GFLOPs (22‑47%) and throughput improvements (up to 74%) on ADE20K, with optimal hyperparameters depending mainly on backbone pre‑training and target dataset.
