PhotoBench: Beyond Visual Matching Towards Personalized Intent-Driven Photo Retrieval

PhotoBench is a new benchmark built from authentic personal photo albums that moves beyond simple visual matching to focus on personalized, intent-driven retrieval. It incorporates a multi-source profiling framework that combines visual semantics, spatial‑temporal metadata, social identity, and temporal events to generate complex queries reflecting users’ life trajectories. Evaluation on PhotoBench reveals two key limitations: a modality gap where unified embedding models fail on non‑visual constraints, and a source fusion paradox where agentic systems struggle with tool orchestration.
