ReToken: One Token to Improve Vision-Language Models for Visual Retrieval
arXiv cs.AI · Published · 3 min read

- What happened
- ReToken adds a learnable token to vision-language models that selects relevant visual information from long contexts, improving retrieval performance while reducing memory demands.
- Why it matters
- Matters for engineers building or deploying vision-language systems that process long images or videos where GPU memory and distractor tokens limit performance.
- Watch out
- Training uses only small image-QA datasets; generalization to diverse long-context tasks and real-world deployment scenarios remains to be validated.
