Composed image retrieval aims to find an image that best matches a given multi-modal user query consisting of a reference image and text pair. Existing methods commonly pre-compute image embeddings over the entire corpus and compare these…
This paper studies the problem of zero-shot sketch-based image retrieval (ZS-SBIR), which aims to use sketches from unseen categories as queries to match the images of the same category. Due to the large cross-modality discrepancy, ZS-SBIR…
Most of the research in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) focus on developing robust feature representations that can effectively retrieve instances from a database of images that are visually similar to a query. However, the retrieved…
Despite impressive advances in recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs), state-of-the-art models such as from the GPT-4 suite still struggle with knowledge-intensive tasks. To address this, we consider Reverse Image Retrieval (RIR)…
