TOPS formulates visual token pruning as constructing Token Optimal Preservation Sets using three information-theoretic principles and demonstrates superior performance on MLLM benchmarks.
CLSE prunes tokens in MLLMs by quantifying cross-layer spectral redistribution in the frequency domain to preserve semantically active tokens and reduce compute.
TGV-KV uses text-vision budgeting, weighted ranking, and prioritised retention to evict KV cache in VLMs while retaining 99.2% accuracy at 5% budget on VizWiz-VQA.
SPpruner reduces visual tokens in VLMs via focus identification followed by context-aware scanning, retaining 22.2% tokens for 2.53x speedup on Qwen2.5-VL with negligible accuracy loss.
Sink-Token-aware Pruning (SToP) uses a sink score to suppress attention-sink tokens during visual token pruning, improving fine-grained video understanding in Video LLMs at high pruning rates.
HAWK is a training-free method that prunes over 80% of visual tokens in MLLMs while retaining 96% accuracy by using head importance weights and text-guided attention to select task-relevant tokens.
RTPrune introduces a reading-twice inspired two-stage pruning technique for DeepSeek-OCR that retains 84.25% tokens while delivering 99.47% accuracy and 1.23x faster prefill on OmniDocBench.
EADP filters textual noise via statistical entropy then casts token selection as submodular maximization with spatial prior to preserve fine-grained cues in VLMs under strict budgets.
