The Cross-Architecture Substrate: A Domain-Transcendent, Calibration-Surviving Geometric Invariant of Modern Vision Encoders

arXiv:2606. 07882v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Different vision neural networks -- trained to classify, contrast, reconstruct, or match images to text -- should have correspondingly different internal representations.

Not All Patches are Equal: Sampling Matters for Visible-Infrared Pre-Training

Visible-infrared (VIS-IR) alignment is a key pre-training task for robust multi-sensor perception. Most existing methods use uniform patch-wise contrastive learning, but this can be unreliable in VIS-IR data because imaging-physics differences make some spatially paired regions inherently less comparable, and aligning them with equal strength hinders representation learning and downstream transfer.
