This paper is adjacent to HFEPX scope and is best used for background context, not as a primary protocol reference.
Use this as background context only. Do not make protocol decisions from this page alone.
All signals on this page are inferred from the abstract only and may be inaccurate. Do not use this page as a primary protocol reference.
Best use
Background context only
Use if you need
A secondary eval reference to pair with stronger protocol papers.
What to verify
Read the full paper before copying any benchmark, metric, or protocol choices.
Main weakness
This paper looks adjacent to evaluation work, but not like a strong protocol reference.
Treat as adjacent context, not a core eval-method reference.

Multimodal large language models have become the dominant paradigm for visual understanding, but incur substantial costs by encoding inputs into dense, fixed-size patch tokens. However, visual information is unevenly distributed: some regions require fine-grained detail, while others admit compact representations. Downsampling sacrifices this detail, while existing token pruning and adaptive approaches remain limited in content-adaptive granularity, task generalization, and integration with modern MLLMs and serving infrastructure. Overcoming these limitations calls for foundation models that learn, end to end, where-and at what granularity-to allocate visual representations, a native capability we term elastic visual representation weaving. We introduce VisionWeave, establishing this capability in frontier-level MLLMs through large-scale training. It combines two components: a gated spatial pooler constructs coarse-grained representations alongside native fine-grained representations within a shared MRoPE coordinate, while a granularity router learns their content-adaptive allocation. Through self-distillation alone, we validate this capability on Qwen3.5-4B and scale to Qwen3.8-27B with over 30K A100 GPU-hours. Based on Qwen3.8-27B, VisionWeave adaptively adjusts token savings to visual content, saving 43.0% tokens on average while retaining 98.9% native performance across eight benchmarks, versus only 88% performance preserved for token pruning baselines with a fixed 50% savings target. Extensive evaluations confirm robust efficiency-quality trade-offs across diverse tasks, resolutions and video frames. When deployed on SGLang serving engine, our method achieves a 2.3x throughput gain while reducing mean TTFT by 54.4% and mean TPOT by 60.6%. Together, we believe these results position elastic visual weaving as a promising capability for next-generation multimodal models.
These are the protocol signals we could actually recover from the available paper metadata. Use them to decide whether this paper is worth deeper reading.
