mcdse-2b-v1

mcdse-2b-v1 is an experimental model designed for multilingual visual document retrieval.

This model allows you to embed page/slide screenshots and query them using natural language. Whether it's tables, graphs, charts, schemas, images, or text, mcdse-2b-v1 encodes everything into a single embedding vector, eliminating the need for traditional OCR, document layout analysis, reading order detection, chunking, table/formula extraction...

  • Understands ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น Italian, ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡ธ Spanish, ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง English, ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท French and ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช German

  • Matryoshka Representation Learning: shrink embeddings from 1536 to 256 dimensions while maintaining 95% of the quality. A 6x reduction with negligible impact on performance!

  • Top-tier Binarization: 768-dimensional binary vectors retain 99% retrieval quality of the original 1536-dimensional float vectors. With binary vectors, you can encode 100 million multilingual pages in just 10GB.

  • Fast vLLM inference: run inference on vLLM and efficiently serve embeddings at scale, production ready.

Usage

Initialize model and processor

from transformers import AutoProcessor, Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration
from PIL import Image
import torch
import math

model = Qwen2VLForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
    'marco/mcdse-2b-v1',
    attn_implementation="flash_attention_2",
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="cuda:0"
).eval()

min_pixels = 1 * 28 * 28
max_pixels = 960 * 28 * 28

processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(
    'marco/mcdse-2b-v1',
    min_pixels=min_pixels,
    max_pixels=max_pixels
)

model.padding_side = "left"
processor.tokenizer.padding_side = "left"

document_prompt = "<|im_start|>system\nYou are a helpful assistant.<|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>user\n<|vision_start|><|image_pad|><|vision_end|>What is shown in this image?<|im_end|>\n<|endoftext|>"

Encode queries

def encode_queries(queries: list[str], dimension: int):
    dummy_image = Image.new('RGB', (56, 56))
    inputs = processor(
        text=[query_prompt % x for x in queries],

        videos=None,
        padding='longest',
        return_tensors='pt'
    ).to('cuda:0')

    cache_position = torch.arange(0, len(queries))
    inputs = model.prepare_inputs_for_generation(
        **inputs, cache_position=cache_position, use_cache=False)

    with torch.no_grad():
        output = self.model(
            **inputs,
            return_dict=True,
            output_hidden_states=True
        )
    
    embeddings = output.hidden_states[-1][:, -1]
    return torch.nn.functional.normalize(embeddings[:, :dimension], p=2, dim=-1)

Encode documents

    return round(number / factor) * factor

def ceil_by_factor(number: float, factor: int) -> int:
    return math.ceil(number / factor) * factor

        if h_bar * w_bar > max_pixels:
            beta = math.sqrt((height * width) / max_pixels)
            h_bar = floor_by_factor(height / beta, 28)
            w_bar = floor_by_factor(width / beta, 28)
        elif h_bar * w_bar < min_pixels:
            beta = math.sqrt(min_pixels / (height * width))
            h_bar = ceil_by_factor(height * beta, 28)
            w_bar = ceil_by_factor(width * beta, 28)
        return h_bar, w_bar

def resize(image: Image.Image):
    new_size = smart_resize(image.height, image.width)

        images=[resize(x) for x in documents],

    cache_position = torch.arange(0, len(queries))
    inputs = model.prepare_inputs_for_generation(
        **inputs, cache_position=cache_position, use_cache=False)

    with torch.no_grad():
        output = self.model(

Results

Given the scarcity of publicly available datasets for multilingual document image retrieval, the model has been evaluated using a custom-built dataset. This eval dataset was specifically designed to benchmark the model's performance across various languages.
