New framework tackles ambiguity in image retrieval with clarifying questions

Researchers have introduced a new framework for Composed Image Retrieval (CIR) that addresses the inherent ambiguity in queries. Unlike previous systems that assume a single target image, this approach reframes CIR as calibrated intent resolution under uncertainty. It uses conformal prediction to provide a candidate set with a coverage guarantee, and when ambiguity is high, it asks the most informative clarifying question to narrow down the options. AI

    Resolving Ambiguity in Composed Image Retrieval via Calibrated Interaction

    arXiv:2605.24634v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Composed image retrieval (CIR) searches a corpus with a reference image and a text describing how to modify it. Despite rapid progress from triplet-trained compositors to zero-shot and generative methods, essentially all systems sha…
