Vision-language models (VLMs) face a fixed-budget trade-off between processing more visual information for fine-grained perception and using a larger language backbone for complex reasoning. Existing studies do not tell us which combination of backbone size and input resolution to deploy, especially in high-resolution …
Vision-Language Models (VLMs) excel at visual understanding and reasoning but often incur substantial inference costs due to the large number of visual tokens. Recent visual token pruning methods increasingly follow a two-stage paradigm: they first remove visually redundant tokens after the vision encoder and then disc …
Large vision-language models (VLMs) can be efficiently deployed under stringent memory and latency constraints through post training quantization (PTQ). However, most PTQ methods are designed for unimodal large language models (LLMs). These methods treat quantization errors as isotropic perturbations under the Euclidea …
Scientific code repositories encode decades of human knowledge in executable models, methods, and tools. Yet fragmented toolchains, implicit domain conventions, and specialized correctness criteria make this knowledge difficult to convert into reliable learning experience-a challenge we call the scientific experience b …
We introduce and release ScienceBuddy, an interactive scientific research workspace that brings continually improving scientific agents into researchers' everyday workflows. ScienceBuddy supports researchers in carrying out scientific tasks while transforming their requests, feedback, and execution evidence into tasks …
