A new paper from Kang et al. explores the limitations of dual-encoder models in understanding and binding concepts, particularly in distinguishing between similar but swapped descriptions. The research mathematically analyzes why models like CLIP struggle with tasks such as differentiating "a red car and a blue dog" from "a blue car and a red dog." The findings suggest that current binding failures are primarily due to incentive and code-structure limitations rather than dimensional or smoothness constraints, with a proved depth ceiling that remains even after these issues are addressed.
