Scaling vision foundation models is constrained by the quadratic complexity of self-attention. Although subquadratic attention alternatives like linear attention variants and state-space models successfully reduce the model complexity, they typically serialize images into 1D token sequences, comprom
Efficient vision transformer remains a bottleneck for high-resolution images and long-video related real-world applications. Generalized Spatial Propagation Network (GSPN) \cite{wang2025parallel} addresses this by replacing quadratic self-attention with a line-scan propagation scheme, bringing the c…
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) excel at visual understanding by leveraging pretrained image encoders to generate visual tokens. However, they struggle with high-resolution images and zoomed-in regions due to the computational burden and token redundancy of uniform patch-based processing, often leadin…
Recent work of discrete generative priors, in the form of codebooks, has shown exciting performance for image reconstruction and restoration, since the discrete prior space spanned by the codebooks increases the robustness against diverse image degradations. Nevertheless, these methods require separ…
Controllable image denoising aims to generate clean samples with human perceptual priors and balance sharpness and smoothness. In traditional filter-based denoising methods, this can be easily achieved by adjusting the filtering strength. However, for NN (Neural Network)-based models, adjusting the…
Image and video enhancement such as color constancy, low light enhancement, and tone mapping on smartphones is challenging because high-quality images should be achieved efficiently with a limited resource budget. Unlike prior works that either used very deep CNNs or large Transformer models, we pro…
This paper presents a new method for shadow removal using unpaired data, enabling us to avoid tedious annotations and obtain more diverse training samples. However, directly employing adversarial learning and cycle-consistency constraints is insufficient to learn the underlying relationship between…
