This repository contains the official implementation of **ReMatch**, accepted to **CVPR 2026**.

ReMatch turns a multimodal large language model into a stronger multimodal retriever by adding a chat-style generative matching objective during training. The same MLLM learns to judge query-document relevance from both raw multimodal inputs and projected embeddings, complementing standard contrastive learning with instance-wise supervision on hard negatives. ReMatch also augments each input with multiple learnable representation tokens and fuses them into an efficient single-vector embedding for retrieval.

## 🔍 Method

![ReMatch framework](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FireRedTeam/ReMatch/main/assets/rematch_framework.png)

ReMatch is built around two core ideas:

- **Query-Document Matching**: an additional autoregressive matching stage that predicts relevance from the query, document, and their projected embeddings.
- **Learnable Multi-Token Embeddings**: multiple learnable tokens capture fine-grained contextual signals; an orthogonality regularizer encourages complementary representations, and the fused output remains a standard dense embedding.

## 🔥 News

- **2026-05**: ReMatch code, the **ReMatch-3B** checkpoint, and evaluation scripts are released.
- **2026-02**: ReMatch is accepted to **CVPR 2026**.
- **2025-11**: The ReMatch technical report is available on arXiv.

## 🛠️ Installation

```bash
conda create -n rematch python=3.10 -y
conda activate rematch
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

`flash-attn` can be sensitive to CUDA, PyTorch, and compiler versions. If installation fails, install the wheel matching your environment from the official FlashAttention release instructions, then rerun the remaining dependencies.

## 🤗 Checkpoints

We release **ReMatch-3B**, a Qwen2.5-VL-3B based checkpoint trained with the ReMatch recipe:

- [FireRedTeam/ReMatch-3B](https://huggingface.co/FireRedTeam/ReMatch-3B)

For local checkpoints, pass the base model through `--model_name` and the adapter/full checkpoint through `--checkpoint_path` when evaluating.

## 🚀 Training

The public ReMatch-3B training entry point is:

```bash
bash experiments/public/rematch/train-rematch-itm.sh
```

Before training, download the mmE5 hard-negative MMEB training data from Hugging Face:

- [intfloat/mmE5-MMEB-hardneg](https://huggingface.co/datasets/intfloat/mmE5-MMEB-hardneg)

In addition to mmE5, please follow the original [VLM2Vec](https://github.com/TIGER-AI-Lab/VLM2Vec) data preparation instructions to download the corresponding MMEB training and evaluation data used by the public configs in this repository.

Then edit [experiments/public/rematch/train_image_mme5_hardneg.yaml](experiments/public/rematch/train_image_mme5_hardneg.yaml) and replace every `DATASET_BASE_PATH` with the directory that contains your `mmE5/` folder. The expected layout is:

```text
DATASET_BASE_PATH/
└── mmE5/
    └── mmE5-MMEB-hardneg/
```

The default script trains a Qwen2.5-VL-3B based ReMatch model with LoRA, 16 learnable query tokens, residual average fusion, orthogonal regularization, and the matching objective enabled. You can override common paths without editing the script:

```bash
EXP_DIR=/path/to/output \
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 \
bash experiments/public/rematch/train-rematch-itm.sh
```

## 📊 Evaluation

Evaluation configs are under [experiments/public/eval](experiments/public/eval):

- [image.yaml](experiments/public/eval/image.yaml)

Please prepare the MMEB evaluation data following the original [VLM2Vec](https://github.com/TIGER-AI-Lab/VLM2Vec) instructions, then set `DATA_BASEDIR` to the directory containing the downloaded evaluation files.

> **Note:** Evaluation scores may vary slightly across environments, as different PyTorch, CUDA, and `flash-attn` versions can introduce small numerical differences.

For checkpoints produced by this repository, we recommend using `eval_all.py`. It reads the experiment name and automatically matches the evaluation configuration used by ReMatch, including backbone type, target-side instruction prefix, chat template, learnable query tokens, and residual embedding fusion. For example, an experiment name containing `Qwen2.5vl`, `TgtInstruction`, `Queries16`, `ResidualAvg`, and `ChatTemplate` will be evaluated with the corresponding `qwen2_5_vl`, target instruction, 16 learnable tokens, average residual fusion, and chat-template settings.

Evaluate one experiment checkpoint:

```bash
DATA_BASEDIR=/path/to/vlm2vec_eval \
MODEL_BASEDIR=/path/to/training/outputs \
OUTPUT_BASEDIR=/path/to/eval/outputs \
MODALITIES="image" \
python eval_all.py \
  --model_name Rematch_Qwen2.5vl_3B.image.autoresize.lora32.loraAlpha64.BS1024.IB64.GCq32p32NormTemp002.lr1e4.step3kwarm100.lrCosine.TgtInstruction.mmE5H1.Queries16.ResidualAvg.OrthTriu0.2.ChatTemplate.ITM.V1.Ratio0.1 \
  --checkpoint_name checkpoint-2200
```

If no arguments are provided, `eval_all.py` scans `outputs/<model_name>/<checkpoint_name>/`, evaluates every checkpoint directory, and writes summaries to:

```text
outputs/evals/<model_name>/<checkpoint_name>/final_results.json
```

For the released **ReMatch-3B** checkpoint, use `eval.py` directly and pass the matching ReMatch configuration explicitly:

```bash
torchrun --nproc_per_node=8 --master_port=2277 eval.py \
  --lora True \
  --pooling eos \
  --normalize true \
  --tgt_prefix_instruction True \
  --learnable_queries True \
  --residual_embedding True \
  --residual_embedding_method avg \
  --enable_chat_template True \
  --num_queries 16 \
  --per_device_eval_batch_size 16 \
  --model_backbone qwen2_5_vl \
  --model_name ReMatch-3B-PATH \
  --checkpoint_path ReMatch-3B-PATH \
  --dataset_config experiments/public/eval/image.yaml \
  --encode_output_path outputs/evals/ReMatch-3B/image \
  --data_basedir /path/to/MMEB
```
