KVAE Image 1.0

This image autoencoder converts RGB pictures into continuous latents and reconstructs them. It is the original image tokenizer in the KVAE family.

Research release

Use the latent representation as a model component

The image card reports reconstruction on ImageNet-256 and DIV2K. Its 16-channel latent representation is the interface a downstream generator must use.kandinskylab/KVAE-2D-1.0 — model card and files

Keep the encoder and decoder paired

Practical guidance. A compressed representation is useful only with a compatible consumer and decoder. Replacing an autoencoder can change the latent distribution even when tensor dimensions match.
