🚀 🥳 Excited to share that my first-author paper has been accepted to #CVPR2026 🎉 🎊

📄 Lenses: Toward Polysemous Vision-Language Understanding 🔍
In this work, we study how a single image can support multiple valid interpretations, and introduce 🔍 Lenses: a dataset and retrieval model that captures meaning through five interpretive perspectives: 📖 Literal, 🎭 Figurative, 🌀 Abstract, 💛 Emotional, and 🌁 Background.

📢 Camera-ready paper and project website coming soon! ⏳💻📄

🙌 Huge thanks to my advisor, Chris Thomas, for his incredible guidance and support throughout this work! A special shoutout to my co-author, Ali Asgarov, for his collaboration. 🤝

Can't wait to present our work in Denver and connect with others working on multimodal! ⛰️🏔️
