Learned image compression has achieved extraordinary rate-distortion performance in PSNR and MS-SSIM compared to traditional methods. However, it suffers from intensive computation, which is intolerable for real-world applications and leads…
SGD and AdamW are the two most used optimizers for fine-tuning large neural networks in computer vision. When the two methods perform the same, SGD is preferable because it uses less memory (12 bytes/parameter with momentum and 8…

Modern microprocessors are equipped with Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD) or vector instructions which expose data level parallelism at a fine granularity. Programmers exploit this parallelism by using low-level vector intrinsics in…
Second-order optimization methods, which leverage curvature information, offer faster and more stable convergence than first-order methods such as stochastic gradient descent (SGD) and Adam. However, their practical adoption is hindered by…
Vectorization is a compiler optimization that replaces multiple operations on scalar values with a single operation on vector values. Although common in traditional compilers such as rustc, clang, and gcc, vectorization is not common in the…
