Learning from Semantic Dictionaries: Discriminative Codebook Contrastive Learning for Unified Visual Representation and Generation

Discriminative and generative vision models excel in their respective domains but remain semantically misaligned, hindering progress toward unified visual learning. We introduce LEASE (LEArning from SEmantic Dictionaries), a self-supervised framework that bridges this gap using a paired generative-d
