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.

Vision-language models exhibit remarkable zero-shot capabilities but suffer significant performance degradation under distribution shifts. While test-time adaptation (TTA) via Low-Rank Adaptation offers a parameter-efficient solution, we identify a fundamental bottleneck in current methods: the reliance on static rank configurations.
