  "title": "H-DDCM: Hadamard Codebooks for Fast Generative Image and Video Compression",
  "summary": "H-DDCM replaces the dense Gaussian codebooks of codebook-based training-free diffusion compression (e.g., Turbo-DDCM) with implicit randomized Hadamard dictionaries synthesized via the fast Walsh-Hadamard transform, and adds a table-free lexicographic scheme for combinatorial bitstream encoding. The cost is that encode/decode still runs full diffusion or flow-model inference per block, so end-to-end latency and quality remain bounded by the pretrained generator rather than by the codebook, and the method only pays off at ultra-low bitrates where perceptual, not distortion, metrics dominate. Adoption can fail if no suitable pretrained image/video diffusion model exists for the target domain, if rate-distortion (PSNR/SSIM) rather than perceptual quality is the requirement, or if the KV-cache re-encoding streaming scheme drifts on long videos.",
  "rationale": "The method targets a niche deployment case (generative compression at ultra-low bitrates) that presupposes access to a strong pretrained diffusion or flow generator, so it is worth tracking but not a default production adoption for a constrained-infrastructure team.",
