The passage around this formula
None of these three papers claims the resulting bridge is unlimited in what it can carry. LLaVA’s own error analysis documents a case where the model answers confidently that strawberry-flavoured yoghurt is present in a fridge that in fact contains only yoghurt and strawberries, which the authors read as the model treating the image “as a bag of patches, failing to grasp the complex semantics within the image” [ 1 ] , and they separately note that recognising a specific product brand would require higher input resolution than the system uses. The bridge has a fixed information-carrying capacity, whether it is BLIP-2’s small set of learned query vectors or LLaVA’s single projection matrix,…
