The paper introduces FACTS, a structured Fisher Approximation for compressing Vision Transformers (ViTs) using Fisher-weighted SVD, which enforces token‑local aggregation while preserving within‑token activation‑gradient dependence. It also presents Constrained Rank Search (CoRS) to optimize layer‑wise rank allocation under a fixed FLOP budget. Experiments on ViTs and hybrid architectures show that FACTS improves accuracy‑efficiency trade‑offs, outperforming the strongest SVD baseline by up to +5.8 percentage points on Swin‑B without requiring finetuning.
