Researchers have developed LinMU, a novel Vision-Language Model (VLM) architecture that achieves linear complexity, overcoming the quadratic complexity limitations of current models. This new design utilizes an M-MATE block, combining a state-space model with window attention, to process high-resolution images and long videos efficiently. Through a three-stage distillation process, LinMU matches the performance of existing models while significantly reducing processing time and increasing throughput, making advanced multimodal reasoning more accessible.
