  • Publication number: 20250140006
    Abstract: Systems and methods for image understanding can include one or more object recognition systems and one or more vision language models to generate an augmented language output that can be both scene-aware and object-aware. The systems and methods can process an input image with an object recognition model to generate an object recognition output descriptive of identification details for an object depicted in the input image. The systems and methods can include processing the input image with a vision language model to generate a language output descriptive of a predicted scene description. The object recognition output can then be utilized to augment the language output to generate an augmented language output that includes the scene understanding of the language output with the specificity of the object recognition output.

  • Patent number: 12277635
    Abstract: A multimodal search system is described. The system can receive image data from a user device. Additionally, the system can receive a prompt associated with the image data. Moreover, the system can determine, using a computer vision model, a first object in the image data that is associated with the prompt. Furthermore, the system can receive, from the user device, a user indication on whether the image data includes the first object. Subsequently, in response to receiving the user indication, the system can generate a response using a large language model.

  • Publication number: 20240378237
    Abstract: Result images are retrieved based on a similarity to a query image. A set of textual inputs is processed with a machine-learned language model to obtain a language output comprising textual content, wherein the set of textual inputs comprises textual content from source documents that include the result images, and a prompt associated with the query image. The language output and the result images are provided to a user computing device. Information is received descriptive of an indication by a user that a first result image is visually dissimilar to the query image. Textual content associated with the source document that includes the first result image from the set of textual inputs is removed.
