ConvexTok uses convex relaxation of tokenization to a linear program, improving intrinsic metrics, bits-per-byte, and some downstream tasks while certifying near-optimality within 1% at typical vocabulary sizes.
ToaST uses vocabulary-independent split trees and integer programming to produce tokenizers with over 11% fewer tokens than BPE, WordPiece, and UnigramLM while improving 1.5B-parameter LM scores on CORE.
On chemistry SMILES with a fixed 165-token base, BPE and Unigram-LM produce near-disjoint vocabularies (Jaccard ≤0.161) and Unigram-LM emits 29–41% more tokens across 22 matched conditions.
