Tencent released EVIE-8B and EVIE-4.5B on Hugging Face, models for high-capacity visual document retrieval. EVIE-8B reports state-of-the-art retrieval performance with 66.75 nDCG@10 on ViDoRe V3 and 4096D per-token multi-vector embeddings that preserve layout, typography, charts, and tables.
Tencent released EVIE-Preview-4.5B, a multilingual visual document retrieval model built on Qwen3.5-4B. It uses ColBERT-style late interaction with 128-dimensional multi-vector embeddings, cutting vector storage costs by 8× to 32×. The model achieves top-tier performance on ViDoRe benchmarks.

Cohere launched Embed 5, a two-model embeddings family: Embed 5 Pro, which posts the top average score on ViDoRe V3 ahead of Voyage 4, Gemini Embedding 2, and Jina Embeddings v5, and Embed 5 Fast, a lighter low-latency model for high-volume use. Both models share a single embedding space, so teams can index with Pro and query with either without re-indexing. Embed 5 is also Cohere's first family evaluated with its new RCP-nDCG@10 retrieval methodology.

Researchers propose DistilVDR, a 524M-parameter end-to-end visual document retriever distilled from a single 8B vision-language teacher using dual-student distillation and pointwise cosine alignment. It aims to reduce indexing and serving costs versus multi-billion-parameter models while maintaining retrieval quality.

A new post introduces NeoMME, a family of 260M and 800M multilingual multimodal encoders. A single bidirectional Transformer processes both text tokens and raw image patches, trained from scratch with a masked discrete-diffusion objective, avoiding a separate vision tower or causal LM. It was fine-tuned for visual document retrieval using ColPali's page-image approach.

A new family of text embedding models, Giga-Embeddings, is introduced with a focus on retrieval quality and serving efficiency. The largest model is a sparse 10B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts encoder with 1.8B active parameters. It achieves top performance on MTEB benchmarks and offers high throughput, processing 114.5k tokens per second in tests.
