โข The stream is
deterministic synthetic ego-motion, not natural video โ a
controlled apparatus so the steady-motion claim is exactly reproducible.
โข The J column is
modelled compute: an analytic FLOP model (FLOPs ร 1 pJ/FLOP),
not a power meter and not a measurement of energy. Relative comparisons and the budget
guarantee are sound; absolute Joules depend on that coefficient. This project makes
no energy-reduction claim โ see the
model card for why.
โข Results use the dependency-free
SyntheticBackbone, where each patch embedding
is genuinely independent so the compute reduction is realized as real computation,
not as an accounting approximation. On a real ViT
(DINOv2-small) the same machinery runs but degrades faster at low budgets โ see the repo.
โข This page is a
static Space: every configuration was precomputed offline with
the same code the repo's 32 tests exercise, so there is no backend to wait for.
