arXiv:2606. 19627v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The digital commerce landscape is shifting from static, search-driven catalogs to dynamic, immersive video feeds.
arXiv:2606. 03635v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Understanding short online videos involves more than identifying visible objects and actions; video makers often include an underlying message or purpose in the clip.
arXiv:2607. 00446v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As video corpora continue to expand in both scale and task complexity, there is increasing demand for approaches that retrieve relevant videos from large-scale corpora (inter-video reasoning) and subsequently perform fine-grained, query-conditioned tasks (intra-video reasoning) within the retrieved content, such as temporal grounding.
Current instruction-based image retrieval systems are powerful but limited to single-turn interactions, failing to capture the iterative nature of complex, real-world visual searches. To overcome this limitation, we introduce Contextual Composed Image Retrieval (CoCo-IR), a novel task that enables users to progressively refine search results through interactions.
arXiv:2607. 25266v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have enabled long-form video understanding at a scale that was not previously possible.
arXiv:2607. 27475v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In modern recommendation systems, retrieval serves as a primary stage responsible for filtering billions of candidate items down to thousands prior to refined ranking.
arXiv:2608. 13990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Driven by the attention economy, short-video Recommender Systems (RSs) are primarily optimized to maximize user engagement by promoting videos that capture attention within seconds.
arXiv:2606. 07546v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Capturing user interests across extensive watch histories is critical for short-form video recommendation, yet scaling sequence length is limited by two bottlenecks: the semantic sparsity of atomic Video IDs and the quadratic computational complexity of Transformers.
arXiv:2606. 14747v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advancements have significantly expanded the theoretical context windows of Multimodal Embedding Models (MEMs).
arXiv:2606. 07924v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper presents our system description for the 2nd Workshop on Multimodal Augmented Generation via MultimodAl Retrieval (MAGMaR).
arXiv:2608. 08612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recently, retrieval-augmented and memory-augmented methods have emerged as two promising paradigms for long-video question answering.
arXiv:2607. 29213v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern recommender systems in food delivery increasingly leverage multimodal signals, including images, text, and user interaction histories, to enhance user experience, yet effective fusion of these heterogeneous modalities remains challenging, hindering both the joint modeling of multimodal signals and adaptation to evolving user intent.
We introduce Predictive State Retrieval (PSR), a task in which a model observes a short video prefix and a temporal question about an object's future state, then retrieves instances from other videos or images that depict that state. Unlike action anticipation, which predicts a label, moment retrieval, which localizes an observed event within a video, or video generation, which synthesizes pixels, PSR combines anticipation with cross-instance retrieval across multiple temporal horizons.
