What is MonoQwen-Vision?

MonoQwen2-VL-v0.1 is the first visual document reranker designed to enhance the quality of visual documents retrieved in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. Traditional RAG techniques often involve converting documents into text using Optical Character Recognition (OCR), a process that can be time-consuming and frequently results in the loss of essential information, especially regarding non-text elements like charts and tables. To address these issues, MonoQwen2-VL-v0.1 leverages Visual Language Models (VLMs) that can directly analyze images, thus eliminating the need for OCR and preserving the integrity of visual content. The reranking procedure occurs in two phases: it initially uses separate encoding to generate a set of candidate documents, followed by a cross-encoding model that reorganizes these candidates based on their relevance to the specified query. By applying Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) on top of the Qwen2-VL-2B-Instruct model, MonoQwen2-VL-v0.1 not only delivers outstanding performance but also minimizes memory consumption. This groundbreaking method represents a major breakthrough in the management of visual data within RAG systems, leading to more efficient strategies for information retrieval. With the growing demand for effective visual information processing, MonoQwen2-VL-v0.1 sets a new standard for future developments in this field.
