GridProbe cuts VLM compute cost for long videos

Researchers have developed GridProbe, a novel method to improve the efficiency of long-video Visual Language Models (VLMs). This technique adaptively selects relevant frames during inference, reducing the computational cost associated with processing thousands of frames. GridProbe achieves this by probing frame importance in the answer space, allowing for a dynamic adjustment of the number of frames processed based on question difficulty without sacrificing accuracy.
