2026 EVAR: Edge Visual Autoregressive Models via Principled Pruning
CVPR (Under Review)
First author. Proposed a principled OBS-based structured pruning method for visual autoregressive models with progressive scale-aware distillation to address gradient imbalance. Achieved 1.8× speedup with only 10% quality loss on edge devices for single-image generation.
-
2024 Network Binarization via Contrastive Deep Supervision
NCAA Conference
First author. Proposed BNN-CDS, a binary network optimization method based on deep supervision and contrastive learning fusion, with a suitable scaling factor strategy.
