QCPruner: Query-Conditioned Population Coverage for Visual Token Pruning

The high visual-token load in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) motivates training-free pruning to reduce later-layer computation, but under a fixed budget, pruning must preserve query-relevant evidence while avoiding redundancy. Existing methods rank tokens, diversify selected subsets, or optimize coverage with...
