MMLongEmbed: Benchmarking Multimodal Embedding Models in Long-Context Scenarios
Quick summary
arXiv:2606.14747v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advancements have significantly expanded the theoretical context windows of Multimodal Embedding Models (MEMs). However, larger context windows do not necessarily translate into effective comprehension and representation of long-context multimodal inputs, which remains a critical bottleneck for real-world deployment. To address the lack of systematic evaluation in this setting, we introduce MMLongEmbed, the first comprehensive benchmark for evaluating MEMs in long-context scenarios. MMLongEmbed comprises four retrieval tasks span
