Vision-Free CIR Framework Leverages LLMs and Attribute Scoring for Improved Image Retrieval

Researchers have developed a novel vision-free framework for Composed Image Retrieval (CIR), a complex multimodal task. This approach utilizes Attribute-Augmented Hybrid Scoring to compensate for visual details lost in textual representations and employs LLM-Based Reranking to ensure semantic consistency of top retrieval candidates. Experiments on the CIRR dataset demonstrated a significant improvement in performance, achieving 44.04% R@1, an increase of 8.79% over existing zero-shot CIR methods. Further analysis on FashionIQ highlighted the balance between semantic reasoning and fine-grained visual matching, with ablation studies confirming the consistent benefits of both proposed techniques.

    Towards Vision-Free CIR: Attribute-Augmented Scoring and LLM-Based Reranking for Zero-Shot Composed Image Retrieval

    Recent work has shown that "Vision-Free'' approaches (representing images as text) can be effective for standard image retrieval tasks. However, it remains unclear whether this paradigm can effectively handle a more complex, multimodal task, Composed Image Retrieval (CIR), due to…
