BitNet Text Embeddings

LLM-based text embedders have substantially improved retrieval and semantic representation quality, but their deployment remains costly: large backbone models slow down embedding inference, while high-dimensional full-precision embeddings impose substantial storage and bandwidth overhead on large-scale indexes. In this paper, we present BITEMBED, an extreme low-bit framework for LLM-based text embedding that jointly targets encoding efficiency and vector storage.

FastE: Readout-Triggered Token Compression for LLM Embedding Inference

FastE is a training‑free, plug‑and‑play method that compresses token prefixes in large language model (LLM) embedding inference. It uses a shared fixed threshold on batch‑mean readout‑prefix alignment to decide when to compress and ranks prefix states by readout attention scores to keep the most important ones. Experiments on Qwen3‑Embedding models show that FastE can cut decoder‑backbone FLOPs by over 40% while preserving more than 99% of the original ranking quality across multiple benchmarks and tasks.

Generative Embedding Benchmark: How Much Information Survives in a Dense Embedding?

The paper introduces the Generative Embedding Benchmark (GEB), which evaluates how much content from an embedding can be recovered by a decoder that only has access to the frozen embedding and a question, without the original image or intermediate features. GEB uses a curated visual‑question‑answering dataset with 1,800 development and 900 test items covering natural images, scene text, and visual documents. Experiments on seven public embedding models show that visual‑only scores range from 28.25 to 33.21, while joint image‑question encoding boosts scores up to 65.56, revealing that generative readout uncovers information bottlenecks not captured by traditional separability‑based benchmarks.
