Composed Image Retrieval at CVPR 2025

Composed Image Retrieval (CIR) represents a cutting-edge advancement in visual AI, showcased at CVPR 2025, by addressing the limitations of traditional image searches. CIR allows users to search using a multimodal query—combining a reference image with text modifications—to semantically transform and retrieve desired images. This approach bridges the gap between human visual communication and search systems, with significant implications for e-commerce and creative applications. The research presented highlights advancements such as Generative Zero-Shot CIR, which uses generative models to create visual previews; PrediCIR, which predicts missing target content for accurate modifications; and IP-CIR, which uses generative imagination to enhance retrieval with visual proxies. These methods emphasize the need for sophisticated mechanisms beyond text-image matching, signaling a shift toward zero-shot approaches and visual reasoning, poised to transform how we interact with visual information in various domains.
