EReL@MIR 2026
The 2nd EReL@MIR Workshop on Efficient Representation Learning for Multimodal Information Retrieval
The 2nd EReL@MIR Workshop, co-located with ACM Multimedia 2026 in Rio de Janeiro, focuses on efficient representation learning for multimodal information retrieval (MIR). It addresses the gap between the effectiveness of large multimodal models and their real-world feasibility, promoting research on efficiency-aware adaptation, fusion, compression, and scalable serving under strict computational constraints.

Contribution paths
A strong submission should clearly identify its contribution and evaluate it appropriately.
MM2026 Fast Track Submissions
Papers rejected or withdrawn from ACM Multimedia 2026 may be resubmitted via the same link with review comments in an appendix; these bypass peer review and are decided by meta-reviewers with only minor revisions permitted.
