<b>Jina CLIP v2: Multilingual Multimodal Embeddings for Texts and Images</b>
</p>


## Quick Start

[Blog](https://jina.ai/news/jina-embeddings-v3-a-frontier-multilingual-embedding-model/#parameter-dimensions) | [Azure](https://azuremarketplace.microsoft.com/en-us/marketplace/apps/jinaai.jina-clip-v2) | [AWS SageMaker](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-kdi3xkt62lo32) | [API](https://jina.ai/embeddings)


## Intended Usage & Model Info

`jina-clip-v2` is a state-of-the-art **multilingual and multimodal (text-image) embedding model**. It is a successor to the [`jina-clip-v1`](https://huggingface.co/jinaai/jina-clip-v1) model and brings new features and capabilities, such as:

* *support for multiple languages* - the text tower is trained on 89 languages with tuning focus on *Arabic, Bengali, Chinese, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, Georgian, German, Greek, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Urdu,* and *Vietnamese.*
* *embedding truncation on both image and text vectors* - both towers are trained using [Matryoshka Representation Learning](https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.13147) which enables slicing the output vectors and consequently computation and storage costs.
* *visual document retrieval performance gains* - with an image resolution of 512 (compared to 224 on `jina-clip-v1`) the image tower can now capture finer visual details. This feature along with a more diverse training set enable the model to perform much better on visual document retrieval tasks. Due to this `jina-clip-v2` can be used as an image encoder in vLLM retriever architectures.

Similar to our predecessor model, `jina-clip-v2` bridges the gap between text-to-text and cross-modal retrieval. Via a single vector space, `jina-clip-v2` offers state-of-the-art performance on both tasks.
This dual capability makes it an excellent tool for multimodal retrieval-augmented generation (MuRAG) applications, enabling seamless text-to-text and text-to-image searches within a single model.
