Introduction Vision Language Models (VLMs) allow both text inputs and visual understanding. However, image resolution is crucial for VLM performance for processing text and chart-rich data. Increasing image resolution creates significant challenges. First, pretrained vision encoders often struggle with high-resolution images due to inefficient pretraining requirements. Running inference on high-resolution images increases computational costs and […] The post Apple Released FastVLM: A Novel Hybrid Vision Encoder which is 85x Faster and 3.4x Smaller than Comparable Sized Vision Language Models (VLMs) appeared first on MarkTechPost.
