SLED: Scalable Location Encoding via Distillation

arXiv:2608. 06612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The plethora of readily available geospatial data offers exciting opportunities to learn high quality representations of the planet, but the sheer size of the Earth Observations (EO), differing modalities, and different sensor types pose significant challenges in doing so.

TESSERA v2: Scaling Pixel-wise Earth Foundation Models

arXiv:2607. 03949v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pixel-wise Earth-observation (EO) foundation models are now achieving state-of-the-art performance via generated spatial embeddings.

DIVE: Embedding Compression via Self-Limiting Gradient Updates

arXiv:2605. 20689v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: High-dimensional language-model embeddings increase storage and search costs, while supervised compressors can overfit when relevance labels are scarce.

OTIS: Learning High-Quality Time Series Features With Tiny Encoders

arXiv:2410. 07299v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce OTIS, an open time series encoder that yields high-quality time series features for downstream deployment on any system, including resource-constrained wearables and industrial sensors.

Cheap Probes Predict Expensive Training in 3D-CT Vision--Language Models

arXiv:2607. 22771v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Picking the frozen image encoder for a 3D~CT vision--language model (VLM), together with the token-compression scheme on top of it, is a search over many candidates.

Panorama: Fast-Track Nearest Neighbors

arXiv:2510. 00566v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Approximate Nearest-Neighbor Search (ANNS) pipelines for high-dimensional neural embeddings spend the bulk of their query time in candidate verification, making it the primary bottleneck in the search process.

LoCA: Enabling Multi-Modality in Geospatial Location Encoders

arXiv:2610.32894v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Location encoders map geographic coordinates to high-dimensional descriptors through contrastive alignment with paired Earth Observation imagery. We pr...

Argus-Unified: Towards A Compact and Economical Unified Model for Image Understanding and Generation

arXiv:2607. 25527v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unifying visual understanding and generation in one model holds immense promise, but remains challenging and expensive due to heavy compute and data demands and conflicts between the visual features needed for these two capabilities.

LeWorldModel: Stable End-to-End Joint-Embedding Predictive Architecture from Pixels

arXiv:2603. 19312v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Joint Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) offer a compelling framework for learning world models in compact latent spaces, yet existing methods remain fragile, relying on complex multi-term losses, exponential moving averages, pre-trained encoders, or auxiliary supervision to avoid representation collapse.

SIMPLER: Efficient Foundation Model Adaptation via Similarity-Guided Layer Pruning for Earth Observation

SIMPLER is a pre‑fine‑tuning method that reduces inference and deployment costs for Earth Observation foundation models by pruning redundant layers. It uses layer‑wise representation similarity on unlabeled task data to identify and remove up to 79% of parameters without requiring gradients, magnitude heuristics, or hyperparameter tuning. Experiments on Prithvi‑EO‑2, TerraMind, and ImageNet‑pretrained ViT‑MAE show that SIMPLER retains 94% of baseline performance while achieving 2.1× faster training and 2.6× faster inference.
