The paper presents Mixture of Nested Experts (MoNE), a novel approach that leverages the redundancy in visual media such as images and videos to improve processing efficiency. MoNE builds upon the success of Vision Transformer (ViT) based models by introducing a nested structure for experts, allowing it to dynamically select tokens based on a priority order and utilize cheaper nested experts for redundant tokens. This framework enables MoNE to achieve equivalent performance to baseline models while reducing inference time compute by over two-fold. The approach is validated on standard image and video datasets such as ImageNet-21K, Kinetics400, and Something-Something-v2.

The paper introduces a new way to make computer vision more efficient. It uses special kinds of neural networks called Mixture of Nested Experts (MoNE) that can process images and videos quickly while still getting good results. MoNE is different from other approaches because it learns to prioritize certain parts of the image or video over others, depending on how important they are. This allows it to use less powerful “experts” for less important parts, which makes it faster and more efficient. The paper shows that MoNE works well on a variety of images and videos, and it can even adapt to different situations.
