## Training Strategy

### Stage 1: Connector Pretraining
- **Freeze**: All vision encoders, LFM2.5
- **Train**: Projector only
- **Data**: Image-caption pairs (CC3M, LAION)
- **Goal**: Align vision and language representations
- **Batch Size**: 8-16
- **Learning Rate**: 1e-3

### Stage 2: Head Training
- **Freeze**: Encoders, LFM2.5, Projector
- **Train**: Task heads only
- **Data**: Task-specific datasets
- **Goal**: Learn task-specific heads
- **Batch Size**: 8-16
- **Learning Rate**: 1e-3

### Stage 3: Full Fine-tuning
- **Freeze**: None
- **Train**: All components
- **Data**: Multi-task or specific task
- **Goal**: End-to-end optimization
- **Learning Rate**: 1e-5 (encoders), 1e-4 (heads)

## Memory Requirements

| Mode | Memory |
|------|--------|
| Inference | ~10 GB |
| Training (frozen encoders) | ~12 GB |
| Training (full) | ~30 GB |

## Why LFM2.5?
