This paper introduces LLaVA-AlignedVQ, an edge-cloud collaborative Visual Question Answering (VQA) system that leverages a novel Aligned Vector Quantization algorithm (AlignedVQ) for efficient compression of intermediate features. The system achieves approximately 1365x compression rate, reducing data transmission overhead by 96.8% compared to transmitting JPEG90-compressed images to the cloud. LLaVA-AlignedVQ also achieves an inference speedup of 2-15x while maintaining high accuracy, comparable to the original model’s performance across eight VQA datasets.

This paper makes it possible for computers to work together and answer questions about pictures. It shows how to make a special kind of computer model that can be used on devices like smartphones or tablets, rather than just in big cloud computers. This helps reduce the amount of data sent over the internet and makes the process faster. The new system is good at answering questions and works almost as well as the original version.
