Straight-through estimator (STE), which enables the gradient flow over the non-differentiable function via approximation, has been favored in studies related to quantization-aware training (QAT). However, STE incurs unstable convergence during QAT, resulting in notable quality degradation in low precision. Recently, pseudoquantization training has been proposed as an alternative approach to updating the learnable parameters using the pseudo-quantization noise instead of STE. In this study, we propose a novel noise proxy-based integrated pseudoquantization (NIPQ) that enables unified support of pseudoquantization for both activation and weight by integrating the idea of truncation on the pseudo-quantization framework. NIPQ updates all of the quantization parameters (e.g., bit-width and truncation boundary) as well as the network parameters via gradient descent without STE instability. According to our extensive experiments, NIPQ outperforms existing quantization algorithms in various vision and language applications by a large margin.

Establishing consistent correspondences across images is essential for 3D vision tasks such as structure-from-motion (SfM), yet most existing matchers operate in a pairwise manner, often producing fragmented and geometrically inconsistent tracks when their predictions are chained across views. We propose MV-RoMa, a multi-view dense matching model that jointly estimates dense correspondences from a source image to multiple co-visible targets. Specifically, we design an efficient model architecture which avoids high computational cost of full cross-attention for multi-view feature interaction: (i) multi-view encoder that leverages pair-wise matching results as a geometric prior, and (ii) multi-view matching refiner that refines correspondences using pixel-wise attention. Additionally, we propose a post-processing strategy that integrates our model's consistent multi-view correspondences as high-quality tracks for SfM. Across diverse and challenging benchmarks, MV-RoMa produces more reliable correspondences and substantially denser, more accurate 3D reconstructions than existing sparse and dense matching methods.
