arXiv:2505. 10946v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Token communications (TokenCom) is an emerging generative semantic communication paradigm, where tokens serve as compact representation units across modalities.
arXiv:2602. 12338v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Token Communications (TokenCom) has recently emerged as an effective new paradigm, where tokens are the unified units of multimodal communications and computations, enabling efficient digital semantic- and goal-oriented communications in future wireless networks.
arXiv:2505. 18227v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In Transformer architectures, tokens\textemdash discrete units derived from raw data\textemdash are formed by segmenting inputs into fixed-length chunks.
arXiv:2606. 00324v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal LLMs use dedicated encoders to bridge non-language modalities (vision encoders for images, depth models for audio codec tokens) because raw token embeddings alone cannot capture modality-specific structure.
Abundant visual information strengthens vision-language model (VLM) perception, yet massive visual tokens raise inference costs. Existing visual token pruning methods rely on similarity-based guidance, which exploits pairwise text-vision and vision-vision token correlations for compression.
arXiv:2606. 02631v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper studies whether audio, images, and video can share a common wavelet token schema rather than relying on separate modality-specific latent grids.
arXiv:2606. 09135v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We demonstrate that widely deployed Large Language Model (LLM) inference stacks harbor a steganographic channel that requires no modification to model weights, sampling code, or output distributions.
arXiv:2608. 16192v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative visual-token communication reduces transmission load by sending only selected discrete tokens and reconstructing missing content at the receiver.
arXiv:2510. 20535v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent techniques such as retrieval-augmented generation or chain-of-thought reasoning have led to longer contexts and increased inference costs.
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.
arXiv:2607. 04605v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-vector vision-language retrieval preserves fine-grained visual evidence through maximum-similarity late interaction, but dense image-side tokens make storage and scoring expensive.
arXiv:2607. 15232v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A tokenizer fixed at the start of pre-training allocates vocabulary in proportion to the pre-training corpus, reflecting the deployment priorities at that time.
arXiv:2512. 08240v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) rely on hundreds of visual tokens, leading to high computational and memory costs.
