DialogueVPR: Towards Conversational Visual Place Recognition· 对话VPR: 朝向对话式视觉位置识别

Inspired by how humans communicate spatial information, language-guided geo-localization has gained significant traction for its intuitive and practical value. Despite this progress, most methods still rely on a static, one-shot retrieval paradigm, which fails to handle the ambiguity and incompleteness inherent in real-world natural language descriptions. We propose a paradigm shift to reasoning retrieval and introduce Dialogue Place Recognition (DlgPR), which casts localization as an interactive, dialogue-driven reasoning process. To support this new task, we present DlgQuest-Cities, the firs
