Visual language models (VLMs) have come a long way in integrating visual and textual data. Yet, they come with significant challenges. Many of today’s VLMs demand substantial resources for training, fine-tuning, and deployment. For instance, training a 7-billion-parameter model can take over 400 GPU days, which makes it inaccessible to many researchers. Fine-tuning is equally…
LMMs have made significant strides in vision-language understanding but still need help reasoning over large-scale image collections, limiting their real-world applications like visual search and querying extensive datasets such as personal photo libraries. Existing benchmarks for multi-image question-answering are constrained, typically involving up to 30 images per question, which needs to address the complexities of…
