This paper reviews the 1st International Workshop on Disentangled Representation Learning for Controllable Generation (DRL4Real), held in conjunction with ICCV 2025. The workshop aimed to bridge the gap between the theoretical promise of Disentangled Representation Learning (DRL) and its application in realistic scenarios, moving beyond synthetic benchmarks. DRL4Real focused on evaluating DRL methods in practical applications such as controllable generation, exploring advancements in model robustness, interpretability, and generalization. The workshop accepted 9 papers covering a broad range of topics, including the integration of novel inductive biases (e.g., language), the application of diffusion models to DRL, 3D-aware disentanglement, and the expansion of DRL into specialized domains like autonomous driving and EEG analysis. This summary details the workshop's objectives, the themes of the accepted papers, and provides an overview of the methodologies proposed by the authors.

This document is an expanded version of a one-page abstract originally presented at the 2024 Data Compression Conference. It describes our proposed method for the video track of the Challenge on Learned Image Compression (CLIC) 2024. Our scheme follows the typical hybrid coding framework with some novel techniques. Firstly, we adopt Spynet network to produce accurate motion vectors for motion estimation. Secondly, we introduce the context mining scheme with conditional frame coding to fully exploit the spatial-temporal information. As for the low target bitrates given by CLIC, we integrate spatial-temporal super-resolution modules to improve rate-distortion performance. Our team name is IMCLVC.

Image coding for machines (ICM) aims to compress images to support downstream AI analysis instead of human perception. For ICM, developing a unified codec to reduce information redundancy while empowering the compressed features to support various vision tasks is very important, which inevitably faces two core challenges: 1) How should the compression strategy be adjusted based on the downstream tasks? 2) How to well adapt the compressed features to different downstream tasks? Inspired by recent advances in transferring large-scale pre-trained models to downstream tasks via prompting, in this work, we explore a new ICM framework, termed Prompt-ICM. To address both challenges by carefully learning task-driven prompts to coordinate well the compression process and downstream analysis. Specifically, our method is composed of two core designs: a) compression prompts, which are implemented as importance maps predicted by an information selector, and used to achieve different content-weighted bit allocations during compression according to different downstream tasks; b) task-adaptive prompts, which are instantiated as a few learnable parameters specifically for tuning compressed features for the specific intelligent task. Extensive experiments demonstrate that with a single feature codec and a few extra parameters, our proposed framework could efficiently support different kinds of intelligent tasks with much higher coding efficiency.
