⚡️ Speed up function filter_tensors_by_objectness by 20%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 20% (0.20x) speedup for filter_tensors_by_objectness in inference/models/owlv2/owlv2.py

⏱️ Runtime : 486 microseconds → 406 microseconds (best of 20 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 19% speedup through two key improvements:

1. Simplified tensor squeeze operations:

• Original: logit_shift.squeeze(0).squeeze(1) and logit_scale.squeeze(0).squeeze(1)
• Optimized: logit_shift.squeeze() and logit_scale.squeeze()
• This reduces the number of tensor operations from 2 to 1 per tensor, eliminating intermediate tensor allocations

2. Replaced basic indexing with index_select():

• Original: boxes[objectness_indices], image_class_embeds[objectness_indices], etc.
• Optimized: boxes.index_select(0, indices), image_class_embeds.index_select(0, indices), etc.
• index_select() is more efficient for first-axis indexing in PyTorch, providing better memory locality and reduced overhead

Performance characteristics from tests:

• Larger tensor datasets show the biggest gains (22-30% speedup for 500-999 boxes)
• The optimization is most effective when selecting from many candidates, which is typical in object detection filtering
• Smaller datasets still benefit (19% average speedup) due to reduced tensor operation overhead

The changes maintain identical functionality while reducing both computational overhead and memory allocations during the tensor filtering process.
