arXiv:2606.29464v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language dataset distillation (VLDD) compresses a large image-text paired dataset into a small set of synthetic pairs that can efficiently train contrastive vision-language models under strict data and compute budgets. Most existing methods match expert trajectories or cross-modal statistics, yet still enforce full-dimensional alignment in a Euclidean embedding space. This is often overly restrictive due to rank-deficient image--text correlation, with shared semantics concentrated in a low-dimensional range and remaining variation spread
