Coarse-to-fine Hierarchical Architecture with Sequential Mamba for Brain Reconstruction

Understanding the relationship between deep visual representations and the human visual system is a fundamental challenge in computational neuroscience. While modern vision models achieve strong performance in image recognition, their correspondence with the hierarchical organization of the human visual cortex remains an open question.

VISTA: Test-Time Compositional Alignment for Visual Autoregressive Generation

VISTA is a gradient‑based test‑time alignment framework designed for next‑scale visual autoregressive (VAR) image generation. It optimizes intermediate representations within the frozen transformer to enforce compositional constraints, without altering model weights or requiring extra training. Experiments on two benchmarks and two model scales show that VISTA improves compositional accuracy by up to 20% on a 2B backbone and 6% on an 8B backbone, while preserving image quality and enabling a smaller model to outperform a larger one.

MIAR: Medical Image Super-Resolution With Autoregressive Modeling

MIAR introduces a multi‑scale autoregressive framework for medical image super‑resolution, treating the task as a conditional, progressive next‑scale prediction. It incorporates a Scale‑Adaptive Structural Decoder to preserve structural fidelity and uses a hierarchical beam search during inference to reduce recursive error accumulation. Experiments show MIAR outperforms existing methods, achieving a 7.86% MUSIQ improvement and a 2.02× speedup over diffusion‑based approaches.
