Released October 202533K context≈ 24,576 words0.6B params

A compact embedding specialist that converts text into dense vector representations, optimized with W8A8 quantization to run efficiently with reduced memory footprint. It handles a generous 32,768-token context window, making it capable of embedding longer documents without truncation. The quantization trade-off means slightly reduced precision compared to full-precision variants, but gains in speed and resource efficiency.

Glossary

Context WindowThe maximum number of tokens a model can process in a single conversation or prompt.Dense VectorA compact numerical representation where most values are non-zero, used to efficiently store and compare the meaning of text.EmbeddingA dense numerical vector that represents a word, sentence, or concept in a high-dimensional space.Full-PrecisionA model using standard 32-bit floating-point numbers to represent weights, providing maximum accuracy but requiring more memory.Memory FootprintThe amount of RAM or storage space a model requires to run, which is critical for deployment on resource-constrained devices.PrecisionThe level of numerical detail a model uses to represent its internal values; higher precision means more accurate calculations but requires more memory.QuantizationReducing a model's numerical precision (e.g., from 16-bit to 4-bit) to shrink memory usage and speed up inference.TokenA small unit of text (a word, subword, or punctuation mark) that a language model breaks input into for processing.W8A8 QuantizationA specific quantization method where both weights (w) and activations (a) are stored as 8-bit integers, providing a good balance between memory savings and model quality.W8A8 QuantizationA specific quantization method that reduces both weights and activations to 8-bit integers, enabling faster computation on specialized hardware while maintaining reasonable accuracy.
