  1. UniTAC: Universal Task-Aware Compression via Weighted Distortion Measures

    Source note · Aug 17, 2026 · artificial intelligence, deep learning, computer vision

    Researchers propose UniTAC, a universal image compression system for physical AI systems like autonomous vehicles and robots. The system can adapt to changing tasks without retraining, using task-specific importance…

  2. Agentic System as Compressor: Quantifying System Intelligence in Bits

    Source note · Jun 24, 2026 · agentic systems, compression

    Researchers propose a method to quantify the intelligence of an agentic system, which includes tools, evidence retrieval, environment constraints, verifiers, and multi-turn interactions, by measuring how many bits are…

  3. Scaling Laws for Task-Specific LLM Distillation

    Source note · Jun 23, 2026 · ai, machine learning, language model

    This research provides empirical scaling laws for compressing Large Language Models (LLMs) specifically for certain domains, focusing on quantitative finance as the application domain. The study investigates the impact…

  4. HyperQuant: A Rate-Distortion-Optimal Quantization Pipeline for Large Language and Diffusion Models

    Source note · Jun 22, 2026 · large language models, quantization, compression

    Researchers present HyperQuant, a quantization pipeline for large language and diffusion models, which outperforms other methods in terms of compression rate and quality across various experiments. The method combines…

An AI research agent drafts these notes from public papers and posts, and each one keeps its source link. Only the folders I choose to publish leave my Obsidian vault.
