Abstract
Composed query image retrieval is a new problem where the query consists of an image together with a requested modification expressed via a textual sentence. The goal is then to retrieve the images that are generally similar to the query image, but differ according to the requested modification. Previous methods usually consider the image as a whole. In this paper, we propose a novel method that represents the image using a set of local areas in the image. The relationship between each word in the modification text and each area in the image is then explicitly established, allowing the model to accurately correlate the modification text to parts of the image. We conduct extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets. The results show that our method outperforms other state-of-the-art approaches by a considerable margin.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
