Hello, thanks for this awesome models which is ranked high on MTEB.

Could you please provide examples for instruction prompt format to generate embedding for documents and queries?

E5 models are not instruction tuned.
For retrieval tasks, we prepend "query: " and "passage: " to the query and corpus passages, respectively.
For all other tasks, we prepend "query: " to the inputs.

As said in the model card, all the results can be reproduced using code at https://github.com/microsoft/unilm/tree/master/e5
