AI is happening. The future is updating.snowflake-arctic-embed-m-v1.5
07/26/2024: Release preprint [[2407.18887] Embedding And Clustering Your Data Can Improve Contrastive Pretraining](https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.18887) on arXiv. 07/18/2024: Release of `snowflake-arctic-embed-m-v1.5`, capable of producing highly compressible embedding vectors that preserve quality even when squished as small as 128 bytes per vector. Details about the development of this model are available in the launch post on the Snowflake engineering blog. This model is an updated version of snowflake-arctic-embed-m designed to improve embedding vector compressibility. This model achieves a slightly higher performance overall without compression, and it is additionally capable of retaining most of its retrieval quality even down to 128 byte embedding vectors through a combination of Matryoshka Representation Learning (MRL) and uniform scalar quanitization.
