PailitaoGR: Latent Think-with-Images for Generative Image Retrieval
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.26658v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative retrieval has demonstrated strong performance by directly generating product semantic identifiers (SIDs). Extending this paradigm to image search, however, is nontrivial because real-world query images contain diverse information, including the search target, useful auxiliary evidence, and irrelevant visual content. This requires the model to identify and focus on the search target while selectively utilizing auxiliary evidence. In this paper, we propose \textbf{PailitaoGR}, a \emph{Latent Think-with-Images} method for generative ima

Why it matters
“PailitaoGR: Latent Think-with-Images for Generative Image Retrieval” highlights the need for repeatable measurement rather than a single impressive demonstration. Independent validation across datasets and clearly stated limitations determine whether a result can guide product decisions.
