CoQui: A Coordinate-Conditioned Quantum Implicit Generative Adversarial Network for End-to-End Image Generation

Quantum generative adversarial networks (QGANs) have attracted increasing attention for image generation using parameterized quantum circuits. Existing amplitude-based approaches face two key limitations: pixel locations are typically encoded by computational-basis indices or address qubits, causing quantum resources to grow with image resolution; meanwhile, jointly decoding many pixels from normalized quantum states introduces probability competition among pixels and limits precise pixel-wise control.

QINA: Quantum-Inspired Nonlinear Adapters for Pretrained Vision Models

The paper introduces Quantum-Inspired Nonlinear Adapters (QINA), compact modules that apply learnable trigonometric feature lifting followed by bounded nonlinear aggregation to pretrained vision models. QINA enables structured oscillatory basis functions with a norm-dependent Lipschitz bound, allowing spectral reshaping of representations without expanding the receptive field or significantly increasing parameters. Experiments on natural and medical imaging tasks show that QINA consistently outperforms identity baselines, fixed Fourier mappings, and parameter-matched generic adapters, demonstrating that geometry- and spectrum-aware adaptation is crucial for effective frozen-backbone transfer learning.

UVU: Improving Multimodal Understanding via Vision-Language Unified Autoregressive Paradigm

UVU is a vision-language unified autoregressive framework that integrates visual supervision directly into the pre-training stage of multimodal large language models. By using continuous visual encoding and a large-scale iterative hierarchical clustering algorithm to build a pixel-level visual codebook, UVU enables lossless representation of visual inputs and autoregressive generation of pixel-level image tokens alongside textual tokens. This approach synergizes pixel-level visual perception with semantic-level visual understanding, allowing models to internalize visual reconstruction capabilities and improve multimodal understanding performance.
