We consider visual prompts as additional knowledge that facilitates language models in addressing tasks associated with visual information. We introduce a novel approach, wherein visual prompts are memoryd with the weights of FFN for visual knowledge injection.

• Abstract: Current solutions for efficiently constructing large vision-language (VL) models follow a two-step paradigm: projecting the output of pre-trained vision encoders to the input space of pre-trained language models as visual prompts; and then transferring the models to downstream VL tasks via end-to-end parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT). However, this paradigm still exhibits inefficiency since it significantly increases the input length of the language models. In this paper, in contrast to integrating visual prompts into inputs, we regard visual prompts as additional knowledge that facilitates language models in addressing tasks associated with visual information. Motivated by the finding that Feed-Forward Network (FFN) of language models acts as "key-value memory", we introduce a novel approach termed memory-space visual prompting (MemVP), wherein visual prompts are concatenated with the weights of FFN for visual knowledge injection. Experimental results across various VL tasks and language models reveal that MemVP significantly reduces the training time and inference latency of the finetuned VL models and surpasses the performance of previous PEFT methods.

  Large vision-language models (LVLMs) have achieved impressive results in various vision-language tasks. LVLMs suffer from hallucinations caused by language bias, leading to diminished focus on images and ineffective visual comprehension.

  Large Vision-Language Model (LVLM) integrates computer vision and natural language processing techniques, offering substantial application potential.

We observe that LVLMs generate responses from both remote image tokens and local text tokens, and different modalities have different attention patterns. We develop A-VL, a plug-and-play adaptive attention tailored for LVLM inference.
