Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decompose feature tensors into depthwise sub-tensors and quantize each with its own codebook rather than use coupled VQ | DQ-AE · CIFAR-10 | NLL (bits/dim): 4.36 -> 3.14 bits/dim | Helped |
| Decompose feature tensors along the channel axis rather than the spatial axis (ablation) | DQ on VGG-16 features · ImageNet VGG-16 features, K=32 | L_DQ: 0.192±0.002 -> 0.184±0.001 | Helped |
| Decompose feature tensors along the channel axis rather than the spatial axis (ablation) | DQ on VGG-16 features · ImageNet VGG-16 features, K=1024 | mean entropy: 3.64±0.01 -> 3.99±0.01 | Helped |
| Use multiple codebooks instead of one (increase M) (ablation) | DQ-AE · CIFAR-10 | cross-entropy (nats/dim): At K=512: M=1 3.85e+00 -> M=10 2.13e+00 | Helped |

| Use one codebook (M=1), making DQ equivalent to VQ (ablation) | DQ-AE · CIFAR-10 | cross-entropy (nats/dim): 4.16e+00 vs 4.16e+00; 4.01e+00 vs 4.01e+00; 3.85e+00 vs 3.85e+00 | No clear effect |
| Increase codebook size K while keeping M fixed (ablation) | DQ-AE · CIFAR-10 | cross-entropy (nats/dim): M=10: 2.71e+00 (K=32) -> 2.13e+00 (K=512) | Helped |
| Use lower-capacity codebooks in a hierarchical DQ-AE (ablation) | Hierarchical DQ-AE · CIFAR-10 | cross-entropy (nats/dim): 2.84e+00 for [256,128]; 3.21e+00 for [32,128] | Mixed |
| Use depthwise quantization instead of VQ in the hierarchical model | Hierarchical DQ-AE · CIFAR-10, M=5, cross-entropy | nats/dim: For [256,128]: 3.63 -> 2.84 | Helped |
