CORE: Improving Compositional Reasoning in MLLM Embedding via Reranker Distillation

Tingyu Song, Mingxin Li, Yanzhao Zhang +5

MLLM-based embedding models remain limited in compositional retrieval, often failing to distinguish scenes containing the same concepts but different attribute-object bindings. Yet…

UEmbed: Unified Sparse and Dense Multimodal Embeddings

Tingyu Song, Mingxin Li, Yanzhao Zhang +5

Sparse retrieval underpins modern search systems, from web search to retrieval-augmented generation. Existing work has introduced Learned Sparse Retrieval (LSR) to push beyond exac…

A Survey of Reasoning-Intensive Retrieval: Progress and Challenges

Yiyang Wei, Tingyu Song, Siyue Zhang +1

Reasoning-Intensive Retrieval (RIR) targets retrieval settings where relevance is mediated by latent inferential links between a query and supporting evidence, rather than semantic…

Rethinking Composed Image Retrieval Evaluation: A Fine-Grained Benchmark from Image Editing

Tingyu Song, Yanzhao Zhang, Mingxin Li +6

Composed Image Retrieval (CIR) is a pivotal and complex task in multimodal understanding. Current CIR benchmarks typically feature limited query categories and fail to capture the…

Analyzing Diffusion and Autoregressive Vision Language Models in Multimodal Embedding Space

Zihang Wang, Siyue Zhang, Yilun Zhao +4

Embedding models are a fundamental component of modern AI systems such as semantic search and retrieval-augmented generation. Recent advances in large foundation models have substa…

Rewarding the Rare: Uniqueness-Aware RL for Creative Problem Solving in LLMs

Zhiyuan Hu, Yucheng Wang, Yufei He +7

Reinforcement learning (RL) has become a central paradigm for post-training large language models (LLMs), particularly for complex reasoning tasks, yet it often suffers from explor…
