Spatial Priors via Space Filling Curves for Small and Limited Data Vision Transformers

arXiv:2606. 14757v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Though Vision Transformers (ViTs) have become the dominant backbone in many computer vision tasks, due to permutation equivariance, their attention mechanism lacks explicit spatial inductive biases.

Grid-Preserving Knowledge Distillation: Transferring Convolutional Inductive Bias to Vision Transformers under Data Scarcity

Vision Transformers underperform convolutional networks when training data is scarce, and distilling convolutional inductive biases from a CNN teacher is an effective remedy that leaves the deployed model unchanged. General-purpose feature distillation, however, transfers little in this setting.

VideoSEMA: a scalable and efficient Mamba-like attention for video understanding

arXiv:2607. 14711v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present for video understanding (classification) a split space-time attention model, VideoSEMA, consisting of a scalable and efficient Mamba-like attention (SEMA) block in space and a softmax temporal attention in time.
