What Do Visual Tokens Really Encode? Uncovering Sparsity and Redundancy in Multimodal Large Language Models

Researchers developed EmbedLens, a tool to analyze how multimodal large language models process visual information, finding that only 60% of visual tokens carry meaningful image-specific information. The study reveals significant inefficiencies in current MLLM architectures and proposes optimizations through selective token pruning and mid-layer injection.

Hot-Start from Pixels: Low-Resolution Visual Tokens for Chinese Language Modeling

Researchers developed a novel approach for Chinese language modeling using low-resolution visual images of characters instead of traditional text tokens. The method achieved comparable accuracy (39.2%) to index-based models while showing faster initial learning, demonstrating that visual structure can effectively represent logographic scripts.
