arXiv:2607.04593v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities across different tasks, but their computational cost is dominated by the large number of visual tokens fed to the language model. Existing token reduction methods rely on attention-based scores or pairwise similarity, without an explicit semantic representation of each token. We introduce TORINO (TOken Reduction via Interpretable coNcept Overlap), a plug-and-play framework for adaptive visual token reduction in VLMs that requires no fine-tuning of the underlying mod
