Researchers have introduced TTR-Compressor, a novel method for sequence compression in language and multimodal models. This approach frames compression as a test-time regression problem, where input tokens define a regression task, and the fitted coefficients serve as the compressed representation. TTR-Compressor is learned end-to-end and computed efficiently in closed form during the forward pass, offering a general alternative to traditional pooling and projection methods. Evaluations show TTR-Compressor enhances performance in block-wise sparse attention and visual token merging for multimodal large language models, outperforming existing techniques and reducing token usage.
