A novel approach to training vision foundation models has emerged, leveraging multi-teacher distillation from existing models like CLIP, DINO, and SAM. This strategy efficiently creates robust models by combining individual teacher strengths while reducing computational demands. The paper analyzes state-of-the-art agglomerative models, identifying challenges including resolution mode shifts, teacher imbalance, idiosyncratic artifacts, and excessive output tokens. To address these issues, the authors propose novel solutions: multi-resolution training, mosaic augmentation, and improved balancing of teacher loss functions. Specifically, in Vision Language Models, a token compression technique maintains high-resolution information within a fixed token count.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
Agglomerative models are new way to train vision foundation models. They help make strong models by combining different teachers’ strengths while using less computer power. The paper looks at how well these models do and finds some problems like resolution mode shifts, teacher imbalance, and idiosyncratic artifacts. To fix these issues, the authors suggest new ways: multi-resolution training, mosaic augmentation, and balancing teacher loss functions. They also have a special technique for Vision Language Models that helps keep high-resolution information.
