HIVE: Query, Hypothesize, Verify An LLM Framework for Multimodal Reasoning-Intensive Retrieval

Mahmoud Abdalla, Mahmoud SalahEldin Kasem, Mohamed Mahmoud +3

Multimodal retrieval models fail on reasoning-intensive queries where images (diagrams, charts, screenshots) must be deeply integrated with text to identify relevant documents -- t…

BRIDGE: Multimodal-to-Text Retrieval via Reinforcement-Learned Query Alignment

Mohamed Darwish Mounis, Mohamed Mahmoud, Shaimaa Sedek +4

Multimodal retrieval systems struggle to resolve image-text queries against text-only corpora: the best vision-language encoder achieves only 27.6 nDCG@10 on MM-BRIGHT, underperfor…

MARVEL: Multimodal Adaptive Reasoning-intensiVe Expand-rerank and retrievaL

Mahmoud SalahEldin Kasem, Mohamed Mahmoud, Mostafa Farouk Senussi +3

Multimodal retrieval over text corpora remains a fundamental challenge: the best vision-language encoder achieves only 27.6 nDCG@10 on MM-BRIGHT, a reasoning-intensive multimodal r…

MM-BRIGHT: A Multi-Task Multimodal Benchmark for Reasoning-Intensive Retrieval

Abdelrahman Abdallah, Mohamed Darwish Mounis, Mahmoud Abdalla +6

Existing retrieval benchmarks primarily consist of text-based queries where keyword or semantic matching is usually sufficient. Many real-world queries contain multimodal elements,…
