VISTA: Optimized System for Declarative Feature Transfer from Deep CNNs at Scale

Summary: VISTA provides a declarative interface for feature transfer from CNNs on images, unifying scalable dataflow and deep learning systems. It auto-optimizes configuration and execution to reduce redundant computation and memory crashes, delivering 58-92% faster runtimes. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
