The paper introduces RAE-CoD, a diffusion-based compression method that operates in a representation autoencoder space to preserve recognizable content even at extremely low bitrates. It addresses the problem of semantic collapse observed in existing codecs when the bitrate approaches zero, showing that reconstruction losses conflict with semantic objectives and that VAE diffusion models lose efficiency in preserving semantics. Experiments on MSCOCO-30K demonstrate that RAE-CoD outperforms competitors, reducing VFM feature MSE and Fréchet Distance ratios by at least 25.7% and 69.1% at 0.001–0.008 bpp while maintaining stable recognizability and quality.

The paper introduces Restoring without Forgetting (RwF), a continual learning framework for image restoration that handles multiple degradations sequentially without accessing prior data. RwF trains a lightweight adapter for each new degradation, uses an unsupervised routing mechanism to select the correct restoration path, and achieves significant PSNR gains over fine‑tuning on five benchmark degradation domains. The method also demonstrates strong transfer performance on eleven real‑degradation datasets with high routing accuracy.

Modern pretrained vision models achieve strong accuracy but demand substantial GPU memory for fine-tuning, making edge deployment impractical. This paper compares five parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) methods (Full FT, LoRA, AdaLoRA, QLoRA, BitFit) on Transformers- (ViT-Small, TinyViT) and Mamba-based vision backbones (Vim-Small, MambaVision-T) under an on-device VRAM budget (e.
The paper introduces RED (Reconstruction Evolution Dynamics), a new framework for detecting AI-generated images that leverages the evolution of intermediate reconstruction stages rather than relying solely on static representations or endpoint discrepancies. RED uses a frozen multiscale VQ‑VAE and a frozen CLIP encoder to capture a reconstruction trajectory, then learns image‑adaptive stage weights from token negative log‑likelihoods provided by a frozen VAR model. Experiments on six benchmarks show RED achieves the highest average accuracy (92.5%) and precision (97.5%) among evaluated methods, and it remains robust to common image degradations.
