CVE-SAI: Counterfactual Visual Evidence-Guided Selective Attribute Indexing for Risk-Controlled E-commerce Search
Multimodal product models can complete missing e-commerce attributes, yet current methods still optimize attribute-answer accuracy without verifying visual support, conflate transient prediction with persistent index admission, and lack explicit risk control over factually incorrect or visually unsupported values. We address these gaps with Counterfactual Visual Evidence-Guided Selective Attribute Indexing (CVE-SAI), which first infers and freezes an ontology-constrained candidate from the primary image and attribute question without catalog text, and then decides whether that candidate should enter the index. Focus-Zone Distortion (FZD) constructs an attribute-specific visual-dependence ...
