The text embedding set trained by Jina AI.

Intended Usage & Model Info

jina-embeddings-v2-base-es is a Spanish/English bilingual text embedding model supporting 8192 sequence length. It is based on a BERT architecture (JinaBERT) that supports the symmetric bidirectional variant of ALiBi to allow longer sequence length. We have designed it for high performance in mono-lingual & cross-lingual applications and trained it specifically to support mixed Spanish-English input without bias. Additionally, we provide the following embedding models:

• jina-embeddings-v2-small-en: 33 million parameters.
• jina-embeddings-v2-base-en: 137 million parameters.
• jina-embeddings-v2-base-zh: Chinese-English Bilingual embeddings (soon).
• jina-embeddings-v2-base-de: German-English Bilingual embeddings (soon).
• jina-embeddings-v2-base-es: Spanish-English Bilingual embeddings (soon) (you are here).

Data & Parameters

Jina Embeddings V2 technical report

Usage

Please apply mean pooling when integrating the model.

Why mean pooling?

mean poooling takes all token embeddings from model output and averaging them at sentence/paragraph level. It has been proved to be the most effective way to produce high-quality sentence embeddings. We offer an encode function to deal with this.

However, if you would like to do it without using the default encode function:

import torch
import torch.nn.functional as F
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel

def mean_pooling(model_output, attention_mask):
    token_embeddings = model_output[0]
    input_mask_expanded = attention_mask.unsqueeze(-1).expand(token_embeddings.size()).float()
    return torch.sum(token_embeddings * input_mask_expanded, 1) / torch.clamp(input_mask_expanded.sum(1), min=1e-9)

sentences = ['How is the weather today?', 'What is the current weather like today?']

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('jinaai/jina-embeddings-v2-base-es')
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('jinaai/jina-embeddings-v2-base-es', trust_remote_code=True)

encoded_input = tokenizer(sentences, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt')

with torch.no_grad():
    model_output = model(**encoded_input)

embeddings = mean_pooling(model_output, encoded_input['attention_mask'])
embeddings = F.normalize(embeddings, p=2, dim=1)

You can use Jina Embedding models directly from transformers package:

!pip install transformers
from transformers import AutoModel
from numpy.linalg import norm

cos_sim = lambda a,b: (a @ b.T) / (norm(a)*norm(b))
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('jinaai/jina-embeddings-v2-base-es', trust_remote_code=True) # trust_remote_code is needed to use the encode method
embeddings = model.encode(['How is the weather today?', '¿Qué tiempo hace hoy?'])
print(cos_sim(embeddings[0], embeddings[1]))

If you only want to handle shorter sequence, such as 2k, pass the max_length parameter to the encode function:

embeddings = model.encode(
    ['Very long ... document'],
    max_length=2048
)

Fully-managed Embeddings Service

Alternatively, you can use Jina AI's Embedding platform for fully-managed access to Jina Embeddings models.

Use Jina Embeddings for RAG

According to the latest blog post from LLamaIndex,

In summary, to achieve the peak performance in both hit rate and MRR, the combination of OpenAI or JinaAI-Base embeddings with the CohereRerank/bge-reranker-large reranker stands out.

Plans

1. Bilingual embedding models supporting more European & Asian languages, including French, Italian and Japanese.
2. Multimodal embedding models enable Multimodal RAG applications.
3. High-performt rerankers.
