This work addresses the challenge of unifying text, code, documents, images, audio, and video in on-device multimodal search under stringent local compute and memory constraints. It presents the first end-to-end, full-modality multimodal search system deployed entirely on Apple Silicon Macs, integrating encoders, indexing, and storage while ensuring complete data locality. The system innovatively combines multimodal embeddings, quantized indexing, incremental re-encoding, fine-grained GPU acceleration, and memory-aware scheduling, all coordinated through a unified memory allocation mechanism that adheres to user-specified memory budgets. Evaluated across five Mac devices spanning an 8× range in NPU compute and a 32× range in memory capacity, the system consistently achieves efficient background indexing and real-time interactive search performance.
This work addresses the challenge of balancing inference efficiency, cross-domain robustness, and the ability to handle semi-structured data in listwise reranking models. We propose an efficient 0.6B-parameter listwise reranker based on a last-but-not-late (LBNL) interaction architecture, which innovatively integrates sliding-window and global attention mechanisms—comprising three local and two global attention layers—and leverages multi-domain mixed training combined with a three-stage self-distillation strategy. The resulting model achieves 63.20 nDCG@10 on BEIR, matching the performance of 4B-scale models, outperforms prior approaches on MIRACL and RTEB benchmarks, and yields a 9.6-point gain in nDCG@10 on semi-structured retrieval tasks while reducing inference latency by up to 1.56×.
This work addresses the challenge of enhancing retrieval performance of frozen small-scale embedding models without retraining. It proposes a test-time computation approach that leverages agent-based program search to automatically generate and evaluate inference programs for optimizing dense retrieval. The key insight is the discovery of a parameter-agnostic, unified algebraic formulation: interpolating the original query vector with the softmax-weighted centroid of its local top-K retrieved documents. This method consistently improves nDCG@10 across seven embedding model families spanning an order-of-magnitude difference in parameter count and demonstrates broad effectiveness on the full BEIR benchmark suite. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration that test-time computation can substantially boost the retrieval capability of frozen embedding models.
This work addresses the challenge of efficiently constructing a unified multimodal embedding space while preserving the performance of original text embeddings. To this end, the authors propose a frozen tower ensemble architecture that keeps both the pretrained text encoder and separate image and audio encoders fixed, aligning modalities solely through a lightweight connection module comprising only 0.35% of the total trainable parameters. Without fine-tuning any backbone models, the approach successfully maps text, images, audio, and video into a shared embedding space. It maintains strong textual embedding consistency while achieving multimodal retrieval performance comparable to that of significantly larger state-of-the-art models.
