Wontopos Tablet 2: Measuring Multilingual and Multimodal Memory Retrieval Without Lexical Matching

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

The paper evaluates the tablet‑2 long‑term memory engine on multilingual text benchmarks and cross‑lingual photo retrieval without lexical matching. Tablet‑2 achieves high accuracy on LongMemEval‑S (95.7%) and moderate accuracy on BEAM‑1M (67.5%), with minimal variance across runs. In multimodal tests, it outperforms BM25 on image‑cell recall and shows significant language‑dependent performance gaps, especially for low‑resource languages.

Wontopos Tablet 2: Measuring Multilingual and Multimodal Memory Retrieval Without Lexical Matching

We measure tablet-2, a production long-term memory engine for language models, on the text benchmarks the field already uses and on cross-lingual retrieval of photographs stored with no text at all. I...

MIDR: Enrichment-Augmented Indexing for Multimodal Document Retrieval

MIDR (Multimodal Indexing for Document Retrieval) is a training‑free framework that enriches document indexes by converting rendered pages into verified textual fields with a multimodal LLM, then indexing those fields with BM25F and optionally fusing with dense retrieval. By shifting multimodal reasoning to index time, MIDR enables text‑centric serving while retaining multimodal evidence, achieving a 23.0% relative gain over BM25 on ViDoRe V3 and outperforming ColQwen2.5 on several domains with significantly smaller index memory and lower query latency.
