StableVQ: Practical Guidelines for Stable Vector-Quantized Tokenizer Training

StableVQ introduces practical guidelines to improve training stability for vector‑quantized tokenizers used in image generation models. It addresses instability caused by the entanglement of encoder–decoder and codebook training by proposing three techniques: Dynamic STE for the encoder, Region VQ Loss for the codebook, and a Decoupled Schedule for independent learning rates. Experiments on ImageNet show consistent gains in stability, codebook utilization, and reconstruction quality across various settings.

TT-VidT: Decoupling the Temporal Axis for Efficient Motion-Centric Video Pretraining

TT-VidT is a video pretraining method that decouples the temporal axis by combining a per‑frame ViT-B/16 spatial encoder with a compact Temporal Transfer Layer trained via Diff Compression. The authors conduct a systematic 24‑configuration study to isolate architecture, objective, and decoder effects, showing that the full TT-VidT design yields the strongest motion‑sensitive representations. In downstream fine‑tuning, TT‑VidT outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines on Jester, Something‑Something V2, ARID, and Diving48 while using significantly fewer encoder FLOPs.

{\Omega}-QVLA: Robust Quantization for Vision-Language-Action Models via Composite Rotation and Per-step Scaling

arXiv:2605. 28803v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models unify perception, reasoning, and control within a single policy, yet their multi-billion-parameter backbones and diffusion-based action heads make on-device deployment prohibitively expensive.
