用视觉模型蒸馏提升事件流表示能力，实现高分辨率下更精准的跨模态对齐。

Learning versatile, fine-grained representations from irregular event streams is pivotal yet nontrivial, primarily due to the heavy annotation that hinders scalability in dataset size, semantic richness, and application scope. To mitigate this dilemma, we launch a novel self-supervised pretraining method that distills visual foundation models (VFMs) to push the boundaries of event representation at scale. Specifically, we curate an extensive synchronized image-event collection to amplify cross-modal alignment. Nevertheless, due to inherent mismatches in sparsity and granularity between image-event domains, existing distillation paradigms are prone to semantic collapse in event representations, particularly at high resolutions. To bridge this gap, we propose to extend the alignment objective to semantic structures provided off-the-shelf by VFMs, indicating a broader receptive field and stronger supervision. The key ingredient of our method is a structure-aware distillation loss that grounds higher-quality image-event correspondences for alignment, optimizing dense event representations. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our approach takes a great leap in downstream benchmarks, significantly surpassing traditional methods and existing pretraining techniques. This breakthrough manifests in enhanced generalization, superior data efficiency and elevated transferability.
