Frequency-Modulated Visual Restoration for Matryoshka Large Multimodal Models
Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) struggle to adapt varying computational budgets due to numerous visual tokens. Previous methods attempted to reduce the number of visual tokens before or within LLMs. However, these strategies inevitably result in the loss of visual semantic. To address these issues, we introduce FMVR, a plug-and-play and extremely simple Frequency-Modulated Visual Restoration strategy to boost the reasoning ability of LMMs under visual token reduction. Specifically, FMVR disentangles the visual representation of fewer visual tokens into low- and high-frequency components through AvgPool and MaxPool. The derived frequencies are subsequently modulated using lightweight learna...
