CRAFT: Compression via Recursive Adaptive Fusion of Video Tokens for Vision-Language Models

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

In video understanding, vision-language models (VLMs) must ingest massive numbers of visual tokens, causing the computational and memory cost of the prefill stage to rise sharply. Such visual sequences are highly redundant along the spatio-temporal dimension, yet a high compression ratio is often accompanied by the loss of critical details.

Adaptive Two-Stage Visual Token Pruning for Efficient Inference in Video-Language Models

arXiv:2608. 03112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models excel at image and video understanding but suffer from high inference latency due to the need to process thousands of tokens per image, limiting their deployment on resource-constrained edge devices and in real-time surveillance applications.
