While 3D Vision-Language Models (3D VLMs) have demonstrated remarkable spatial reasoning capabilities, they suffer from massive visual token counts that create severe computational bottlenecks during inference. Existing token pruning methods primarily rely on diversity-based selection, discarding similar tokens to maximize dispersion.

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.

GeoGR introduces a two‑stage framework for efficient 3D vision‑language models. The first stage, GeoSemZip, compresses multi‑view visual tokens into compact 3D voxel representations while preserving important scene information through contextual anchors. The second stage, GroupRoute, dynamically routes tokens through the language model, allowing low‑relevance tokens to skip layers and rejoin later, thereby reducing computation without significant loss of performance.
