AVA-VLM: Adaptive Visual Attention-Vision Language Model for In-the-Wild Construction Site Monitoring
Existing construction-site Vision-Language Model (VLM) studies have primarily adapted pretrained VLMs through direct QA-style fine-tuning from a single global image, but we argue that this paradigm remains limited in operational range, reliability under reduced-resolution inputs, and inference efficiency. To address these limitations, we propose AVA-VLM, an Adaptive Visual Attention-Vision Language Model that follows a human-inspired coarse-to-fine strategy: it first reasons over a low-resolution global image and requests a high-resolution local crop only when detailed inspection is needed. We further introduce a region-aware Chain-of-Thought dataset that teaches when to inspect, where to...
