A 1B Vision Model Beats 7B Rivals on Dense Spatial Perception
LingBot-Vision treats object boundaries as native pretraining signals and matches or surpasses DINOv3 at seven times the parameters on NYU-Depth v2.
A new paper, Vision Pretraining for Dense Spatial Perception, introduces LingBot-Vision, a 1-billion-parameter Vision Transformer trained with self-supervision, surfaced by the AI with Papers channel. Its central idea is a boundary-centric…
