   Shift-and-Sum Quantization for Visual Autoregressive Models

   arXiv:2606.16131v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Post-training quantization (PTQ) enables efficient deployment of deep networks using a small set of data. Its application to visual autoregressive models (VAR), however, remains relatively unexplored. We identify two key challenge…

   Unified Multimodal Autoregressive Modeling with Shared Context-Visual Tokenizer is Key to Unification

   UniAR presents a unified autoregressive framework that uses a single discrete visual tokenizer to bridge visual understanding and generation, achieving state-of-the-art results in image generation and editing through multi-level feature fusion, bitwise quantization, and parallel …

   Unified Multimodal Autoregressive Modeling with Shared Context-Visual Tokenizer is Key to Unification

   arXiv:2606.18249v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Unified Multimodal Modeling aims to integrate visual understanding and generation within a single system. However, existing approaches typically rely on two disparate visual tokenizers, which splits the representation space and hind…

   Unified Multimodal Autoregressive Modeling with Shared Context-Visual Tokenizer is Key to Unification

   Unified Multimodal Modeling aims to integrate visual understanding and generation within a single system. However, existing approaches typically rely on two disparate visual tokenizers, which splits the representation space and hinders truly unified modeling. We propose UniAR, a …
