# apple-aiml-research/ml-lensvlm

> Official code for LensVLM, a 9B Vision Language Model that scans compressed page images and selectively expands only relevant pages via a read_page tool to answer questions.

- Magnitude: 1.1 out of 10 — Cooling
- Stars: 71 total · +0 stars today, ≈ 4 by evening
- Star trust: star growth looks organic
- Category: Language models · Language: Python · Created: 2026-09-22 · Last push: 2026-09-22

## Useful for

- Run the bundled HotpotQA demo to inspect the multi-turn page-selection trajectory
- Prepare an eval set from HotpotQA/NQ/Musique with 5x/10x/15x compression and distractors
- Evaluate answer accuracy and page-selection metrics with an LLM judge

## Why it’s here

- 0 stars so far today, about 4 expected by the end of the day.
- The repository is 4 days old and already has 71 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #190.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 5
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 0
- Average over the last week: 15 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 0

## Stars per day, last 7 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

2026-09-20 … 2026-09-26: 0, 0, 6, 39, 21, 5, 0

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
