| Challenge: | Existing methods for multimodal document retrieval often replicate techniques developed for text-only retrieval. |
| Approach: | They propose a document retrieval model that bridges the gap between multimodal representation learning and document retrievals by providing external knowledge as context. |
| Outcome: | The proposed model achieves 3.61% improvement over existing retrieval models on the ViDoRe V2 benchmark, showing stronger generalization to out-of-domain benchmarks. |
