@tonywu_71 congrats Tony! very interesting work and the performance seems to be strong! And i like a lot you put a lot of efforts on the writing and making beautiful charts in the report! 242 views · 9 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

And many thanks to Raushan Turganbay, @mervenoyann and @art_zucker for helping me land the day-0 transformers integration! And huge kudos to @tomaarsen, the goat maintainer of Sentence Transformers who recently added late-interaction support! 🤗 (15/N) 232 views · 9 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

NeoMME began as a side quest between two good friends (thanks @Aurelien_L_ for bearing with me 🫶🏼). We both worked with limited time, but I hope you'll find our work interesting! And thanks to @hcompany_ai for supporting this work and providing the training compute. (13/N) 244 views · 12 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

You can use NeoMME-Retriever for visual RAG: given a query, it retrieves the top-k most relevant page images. A VLM then answers the original question using those pages as context. I created an Hf Space so you can try it yourself! (11/N) https://t.co/8pARXLHT1s

We wrote a longer blog post and a 54-page tech report to share all our learnings with the community. You can find these in our 🤗 Hf Collection, which includes the Hf Space demo and the open-weight Apache 2.0 checkpoints.

NeoMME-Retriever is available in 🤗 Transformers. The snippet below scores two queries against two dummy page images using both dense and late-interaction heads. (10/N) https://t.co/x2dKbZjM8X

For NeoMME-Retriever-260M on ViDoRe v3, high-resolution late-interaction embeddings average about 1.5 MB per page. Token pooling and asymmetric quantization reduce them to 6 kB, 255x smaller, while retaining more than 95% of baseline nDCG@10. (9/N) https://t.co/6c1Z164NoL

With matched 2048x2048 inputs on one NVIDIA L40S, NeoMME-Retriever-260M encodes about 51 pages per second, nearly 2x ColModernVBERT's 26 pages per second. Faster document encoding means less GPU time, so cheaper indexing! ⚡️ (8/N) https://t.co/F6zOncFPiK

On ViDoRe v3 and using the late-interaction embeddings, NeoMME-Retriever-260M reaches 0.523 nDCG@10, the highest score among evaluated models below 800M parameters. The 800M model reaches 0.556. Both are on the benchmark's model-size Pareto frontier. (7/N) https://t.co/RnpQVmJwII

To get a meaningful downstream evaluation of NeoMME, we fine-tuned the model for visual document retrieval 🔎 We added two jointly trained heads so the model can output both dense and late-interaction embeddings in a single forward pass. (6/N) https://t.co/p3ZAiwPogj

We pretrain NeoMME from scratch with masked discrete diffusion. Image patches stay visible while the model reconstructs masked text. At high masking rates, the model is forced to use the image instead of guessing from the visible text. (5/N) https://t.co/jIuHrvbTmy

NeoMME splits images into 32x32 patches and keeps their aspect ratio and resolution. Most layers use sliding-window attention, while every sixth layer and the final layer use global attention. A 16k-token context fits up to two 4K UHD images in one forward pass. (4/N) https://t.c

With NeoMME, we decided to build a single bidirectional Transformer encoder that processes both text tokens and raw image patches and could be trained entirely from scratch. (3/N) https://t.co/DN7H5UWSZO

👀 Meet NeoMME: a family of 260M and 800M Multimodal-Native Multilingual efficient Encoders One bidirectional Transformer processes text tokens and raw image patches, with no pretrained vision tower, text encoder, or decoder.

Multimodal encoders like ColPali generally reuse pretrained generative VLMs architecture (vision encoder → projector → LLM). Such models are powerful, but they are usually large and the asymmetry in how modalities are handled make it suboptimal for deployment, fine-tuning, 927 views · 18 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →
