Abstract

F2LLM-v2 is a multilingual embedding model family trained on 60 million samples across 200+ languages, achieving superior performance through LLM-based training, matryoshka learning, pruning, and distillation techniques.

AI-generated summary

We present F2LLM-v2, a new family of general-purpose, multilingual embedding models in 8 distinct sizes ranging from 80M to 14B. Trained on a newly curated composite of 60 million publicly available high-quality data samples, F2LLM-v2 supports more than 200 languages, with a particular emphasis on previously underserved mid- and low-resource languages. By integrating a two-stage LLM-based embedding training pipeline with matryoshka learning, model pruning, and knowledge distillation techniques, we present models that are far more efficient than previous LLM-based embedding models while retaining competitive performances. Extensive evaluations confirm that F2LLM-v2-14B ranks first on 11 MTEB benchmarks, while the smaller models in the family also set a new state of the art for resource-constrained applications. To facilitate open-source embedding model research, we release all models, data, code, and intermediate checkpoints.
