GleanVID: Complementary Token Selection for Efficient Video Large Language Models

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.37042v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video Large Language Models (VideoLLMs) have achieved strong video understanding capabilities but incur substantial inference overhead due to the large number of visual tokens. Existing VideoLLM token compression methods largely rely on selection-independent scoring, overlooking cross-frame complementarity and consequently retaining redundant evidence across frames. Instead, we view video token selection as a progressive evidence accumulation process. It aims to retain visual evidence that is individually informative and collectively complementary under a limited token budget. Building on this insight, we introduce GleanVID, a training-free inference acceleration framework for VideoLLMs. Specifically, GleanVID first allocates the global tok
