LFM3-VL-2B

LFM3-VL-2B has no overall index value yet because there are too few independent benchmark results.

Summary

LFM3-VL-2B accepts text, native-resolution images, and video. The dense model has 1.92 billion parameters, a 128K context window, and an in-house vision encoder. Its card publishes 62 visual benchmarks with thinking enabled and disabled.

The model card separates individual tests, category means, and the overall average. Edge and B300 measurements, plus results for a separately fine-tuned manipulation VLA, apply only to their documented configurations. Robotics results are not scores for unmodified LFM3-VL-2B.

GPU throughput chart raw points

Note

The concurrency curve is published only as a graphic. Apart from the manufacturer’s “over 12,000 tokens/s” claim, machine-readable individual points are unavailable.

Robotics variant model IDs

Note

The article reports a fine-tuned manipulation VLA but does not provide a separate model name or exact checkpoint ID in this source. Its results therefore remain in a clearly separate configuration.

Per-suite sample counts for the 62 benchmarks are mostly not stated; selected methodological details appear in the model card.
