The connection

Both compress complex data into a compact representation and reconstruct the original. A URL shortener encodes a long URL into a short code and decodes it back; a VAE encodes data into a latent vector and decodes it back.

Why "Structural"?

Structural bridges share the same architecture or pattern, even though the domains differ.
