Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly being adopted for end-to-end autonomous driving systems due to their exceptional performance in handling long-tail scenarios. However, current VLM-based approaches suffer from two major limitations: 1) Some VLMs directly output planning results without…
In recent years, neural image compression methods have achieved impressive performance in image compression tasks, most of which are based on variational auto-encoder with hyper-prior and autoregressive Gaussian entropy model. We first demonstrate that the way these end-to-end approaches handle quan
Denoising-based generative models have been significantly advanced by representation-alignment (REPA) loss, which leverages pre-trained visual encoders to guide intermediate network features. However, REPA's reliance on external visual encoders introduces two critical challenges: potential \textit{d…
Gaussian and Laplacian entropy models are proved effective in learned point cloud attribute compression, as they assist in arithmetic coding of latents. However, we demonstrate through experiments that there is still unutilized information in entropy parameters estimated by neural networks in curren…
