Researchers have developed CRISP, a novel framework designed to improve the efficiency of Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) by pruning visual tokens before they are processed by the language model. This two-stage approach first identifies text-aligned tokens and then enhances contextual completeness, aiming to maintain accuracy while significantly reducing inference costs and latency. Experiments on LLaVA-1.5 and LLaVA-NeXT models show that CRISP can preserve up to 99.5% of accuracy while more than halving inference time, offering a practical solution for resource-constrained environments.
