WSVD is a method for efficient low-rank approximation designed to enable fast and efficient execution of Low-Precision Vision-Language Models (VLMs). By applying SVD at a finer granularity (per-head) and using element-wise importance to guide fine-tuning, WSVD achieves significant decoding speedups while maintaining high accuracy.
