Successive Capacity Growth: Task-Complexity-Driven Width and Depth Expansion for Vision Transformer Encoders in JEPA World Models
Joint-Embedding Predictive Architectures (JEPAs) for world modeling typically employ fixed-size Vision Transformer encoders that are over-provisioned for simple tasks and under-provisioned for complex ones, with significant redundancy across attention heads. We propose Successive Capacity Growth (SCG), a method that starts from a minimal encoder (1 head, 2 layers, 283K parameters) and grows…
