Researchers have developed a novel framework for text-based person anomaly search, addressing the challenge of transferring models trained on synthetic data to real-world surveillance images. The system employs a multi-model retrieval and reranking approach, adapting the Qwen3-VL-Embedding-8B model with techniques like bidirectional contrastive learning and domain randomization. It fuses scores from multiple Qwen3-VL checkpoints and a SigLIP2 model, then uses a Qwen3-VL-Reranker-8B cross-encoder for final evaluation. This method achieved strong results, including 94.7815% mAP and 90.8493% R@1 on the AI City Challenge 2026 Track 4, securing an eighth-place finish on the public leaderboard. AI
