Description of the change:
Currently, each image in
obs.images
inpi0.py
is processed sequentially by the vision transformer inembed_prefix()
, which leads to redundant kernel launches and increased runtime.Motivation:
Batching all images together and encoding them in one forward pass reduces kernel launch overhead and enables better fusion. This can lead to lower latency during inference (~5ms speed up on RTX 4090).
Proposed Change:
stacked_images = jnp.stack(list(obs.images.values()), axis=1)
self.PaliGemma.img(...)
