Current high-resolution vision-language models encode images as high-resolution image tokens and exhaustively take all these tokens to compute attention, which significantly increases the computational cost. To address this problem, we…
Visual attention mechanisms are widely used in multimodal tasks, as visual question answering (VQA). One drawback of softmax-based attention mechanisms is that they assign some probability mass to all image regions, regardless of their…
Neural Additive Models (NAMs) have recently demonstrated promising predictive performance while maintaining interpretability. However, their capacity is limited to capturing only first-order feature interactions, which restricts their…
