arXiv:2604. 26508v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deploying Vision-Language Models (VLMs) on edge devices remains challenging due to their substantial computational and memory demands, which exceed the capabilities of resource-constrained embedded platforms.
Multimodal foundation models are reshaping edge-cloud visual intelligence from task-specific feature pipelines into token-based interfaces, where edge devices encode visual inputs into tokens for a general-purpose cloud MLLM. However, dense visual-token sequences increase cloud-side inference costs.
arXiv:2607. 06982v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have demonstrated encouraging results in image classification tasks.
arXiv:2606. 04433v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) are increasingly used in multi-image, multi-turn agentic settings where decisions depend on visual changes.
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have demonstrated encouraging results in image classification tasks. However, the prohibitive computational cost of CNNs hinders the deployment of CNNs onto resource-constrained embedded devices.
arXiv:2606. 11576v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern Vision-Language Models (VLMs) benefit from chain-of-thought prompting and test-time scaling, but these gains often come with prohibitive inference cost due to large visual contexts and long decoding chains.
