Source description

BGE-M3 is a versatile text embedding model that supports multi-functionality, multi-linguality, and multi-granularity, allowing it to perform dense retrieval, multi-vector retrieval, and sparse retrieval in over 100 languages and with input sizes up to 8192 tokens. The model can be used in a retrieval pipeline with hybrid retrieval and re-ranking to achieve higher accuracy and stronger generalization capabilities. BGE-M3 has shown state-of-the-art performance on several benchmarks, including MKQA, MLDR, and NarritiveQA, and can be used as a drop-in replacement for other embedding models like DPR and BGE-v1.5.
