One Token per Multimodal Evidence: Latent Memory for Resource-Constrained QA

arXiv:2606.10572v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: External memory effectively grounds large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs)-based question answering (QA) in relevant multimodal evidence. However, existing memory paradigms represent each memory item in raw text and image forms, so retrieval-based systems must pass the retrieved text or images to the generation LLMs/VLMs, resulting in high token consumption and storage pressure, making it unaffordable for resource-constrained applications. We propose Latent Memory, a latent-space memory paradigm that replaces each raw text
