arXiv:2607. 29002v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online shoppers increasingly turn to AI shopping assistants, using images and multi-turn dialogue to express and refine product needs that are difficult to articulate in text alone.
arXiv:2607. 17499v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The evolution of e-commerce has fundamentally transformed how users search for products, shifting from simple text-based keyword queries to complex multimodal interactions that seamlessly combine product images, natural language descriptions, and mixed-intent instructions.
We present SimpleSearch-VL, an efficient, reliable, and practical framework for multimodal agentic search. Its core idea is to improve the agent's own search-and-verification process rather than scaling data, tools, or auxiliary model components.
arXiv:2606. 17698v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As LLM-based shopping agents enter production, existing benchmarks fail to capture how a shopper's requirements arrive: stated implicitly in the query, recorded in a profile, or revealed only when the right question is asked.
arXiv:2604. 00513v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: With the rapid growth of e-commerce, exploring general representations rather than task-specific ones has attracted increasing attention.
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:2511. 12449v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have significantly advanced e-commerce product understanding.
arXiv:2606. 15231v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities in many visual tasks, but they often struggle with factual grounding when confronted with complex, open-world scenarios.
arXiv:2608. 07565v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conversational assistants increasingly recommend follow-up edits to help users continue a task.
arXiv:2605. 29861v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have advanced autonomous agents from deep search, which retrieves concise factual answers, to deep research, which synthesizes scattered evidence into long-form reports.
arXiv:2608. 11616v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic systems powered by large language models (LLMs) have opened new opportunities for business ideation.
arXiv:2607. 10079v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Digital Adoption Platforms (DAPs) are embedded overlays widely used on web systems to guide users through operations inside a page, helping them get started with unfamiliar interfaces quickly.
arXiv:2607. 22643v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal retrieval-augmented generation (mRAG) aims to answer image-text queries with external knowledge, but most existing systems still retrieve directly from raw multimodal input over a flat evidence space.
