ResARC: Residual-Aware AutoRegressive Coding for Ultra-Low Bitrate Image Compression

Progressive autoregressive image codecs provide an appealing paradigm for generative compression by quantizing continuous latents into discrete tokens, transmitting coarse-to-fine prefix tokens and generating the remaining suffix tokens at the decoder. However, their reconstruction quality is fundamentally limited by two residuals introduced along this pipeline: the quantization residual, arising from information loss during discrete tokenization, and the generation residual, resulting from imperfect autoregressive generation of the suffix tokens. To address these limitations, we introduce ResARC, a residual-aware autoregressive codec that explicitly compensates for both residuals at the decoder. Specifically, we generate the quantization residual with a diffusion transformer conditioned on the autoregressive decoding context, while requiring no additional side information. In parallel, we compute the generation residual at the encoder and employ a learned Generation Residual Codec to efficiently compress and transmit it for decoder-side correction. The recovered residuals are then integrated with the reconstructed latent representation and decoded through an adapted VAE decoder. Extensive experiments demonstrate that ResARC achieves competitive perceptual similarity while substantially improving distributional fidelity over leading generative codecs across the ultra-low bitrate regime. Code and models will be released soon.

Graph Convolutional Subspace Clustering: A Robust Subspace Clustering Framework for Hyperspectral Image

Hyperspectral image (HSI) clustering is a challenging task due to the high complexity of HSI data. Subspace clustering has been proven to be powerful for exploiting the intrinsic relationship between data points. Despite the impressive performance in the HSI clustering, traditional subspace clustering methods often ignore the inherent structural information among data. In this paper, we revisit the subspace clustering with graph convolution and present a novel subspace clustering framework called Graph Convolutional Subspace Clustering (GCSC) for robust HSI clustering. Specifically, the framework recasts the self-expressiveness property of the data into the non-Euclidean domain, which results in a more robust graph embedding dictionary. We show that traditional subspace clustering models are the special forms of our framework with the Euclidean data. Basing on the framework, we further propose two novel subspace clustering models by using the Frobenius norm, namely Efficient GCSC (EGCSC) and Efficient Kernel GCSC (EKGCSC). Both models have a globally optimal closed-form solution, which makes them easier to implement, train, and apply in practice. Extensive experiments on three popular HSI datasets demonstrate that EGCSC and EKGCSC can achieve state-of-the-art clustering performance and dramatically outperforms many existing methods with significant margins.
