General Text
Research in general text processing focuses on developing robust and efficient methods for handling diverse textual data and tasks. Current efforts concentrate on improving embedding models through advanced negative sampling techniques and multi-task learning, enhancing retrieval augmented generation (RAG) for embodied agents and long-context modeling, and creating general-purpose frameworks for various tasks like video segmentation and object detection. These advancements aim to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and generalizability of text processing across different domains and applications, impacting fields ranging from robotics and causal inference to natural language understanding and computer vision.
