Integrating 3D medical images with vision-language models (VLMs) holds substantial promise for computer-aided diagnosis. However, volumetric images generate prohibitively long visual-token sequences with considerable spatial and inter-slice redundancy.
arXiv:2608. 01185v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent 3D vision-language models (3D VLMs) construct geometry aware tokens by projecting 2D visual features into world coordinates, enabling spatial reasoning for tasks such as 3D question answering.

3D vision-language models (3D VLMs) enable spatial reasoning over multi-view scenes but suffer from substantial token redundancy due to duplicated observations and large uninformative regions, leading to high computational cost. Although visual token compression has shown promise in accelerating 2D VLMs, it fails to capture the structured nature of 3D scenes and leads to incomplete spatial coverage and loss of fine-grained details.

arXiv:2607. 22771v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Picking the frozen image encoder for a 3D~CT vision--language model (VLM), together with the token-compression scheme on top of it, is a search over many candidates.

PACE introduces a training‑free Condense‑and‑Extract framework that speeds up Vision‑Language Model inference by first adaptively downsampling visual inputs before encoding and then selectively retaining essential tokens during decoding. The Adaptive Pixel Compressor (APC) reduces encoder workload while preserving global context, and the Dynamic Dual‑Attention Extractor (DDAE) keeps task‑critical details by fusing visual and language signals. Applied to Qwen2.5‑VL‑7B, PACE maintains 93.8% of performance using only 10% of visual tokens, achieving a 3.1× speedup in time to first token.
