AiSearch framework enables interactive multi-modal search with VLMs

A new framework called AiSearch has been developed to enable interactive, multi-modal search capabilities using Vision Language Models (VLMs). This system allows users to refine search results in real-time through feedback and supports visual benchmarking across different VLMs to help users select the most appropriate model for their specific needs. AiSearch aims to bridge the gap between automated and interactive retrieval systems by leveraging the zero-shot abilities of VLMs for natural language searches over image and video content. AI

IMPACT Enhances search capabilities by enabling interactive, multi-modal queries over visual data using VLMs.
