The Geo3DPruner framework from Beihang University and Zhongguancun Academy enhances the inference efficiency of video-language models for 3D scene understanding by introducing a geometry-guided visual token pruning method. It achieves over 90% performance retention while pruning 90% of visual tokens by leveraging multi-view consistency and spatial diversity across 3D spatial videos.

Key insights

  • Leveraging global cross-frame geometric relevance, modeled through attention mechanisms, is crucial for effectively identifying and removing multi-view redundancy in 3D spatial videos.
  • A combined two-stage pruning approach, addressing both local view consistency and global spatial diversity, is more effective than single-stage methods for preserving performance and comprehensive scene representation in 3D.
  • Strategic visual token pruning can not only enhance computational efficiency but also potentially improve model performance by removing redundant or noisy visual tokens, leading to more compact and informative representations.
