Efficient Universal Perception Encoder

Running AI models on smart edge devices can unlock versatile user experiences, but presents challenges due to limited compute and the need to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. This requires a vision encoder with small size but powerful and versatile representations. We present our method, Efficient Universal Perception Encoder (EUPE), which offers both inference efficiency and universally good representations for diverse downstream tasks. We achieve this by distilling from multiple domain-expert foundation vision encoders. Unlike previous agglomerative methods that directly scale down from multiple teachers to an efficient encoder, we demonstrate the importance of first scaling up to ...
