We introduce SlowFast-LLaVA-1.5 (abbreviated as SF-LLaVA-1.5), a family of video large language models (LLMs) offering a token-efficient solution for long-form video understanding. We incorporate the two-stream SlowFast mechanism into a streamlined training pipeline, and perform joint video-image training on a carefully curated data mixture of only publicly available datasets. Our primary focus is on highly efficient model scales (1B and 3B), demonstrating that even relatively small Video LLM...
