Model2vec – Lightning-fast Static Embeddings for RAG/Semantic Search▲28
We’ve recently open-sourced Model2vec, a method to distill sentence transformers into static embeddings that outperform all previous approaches by a large margin on MTEB. Our new models set a new state-of-the-art for static embeddings. Main features: - Our best model (potion-base-8M) has only 8M parameters, which is ~30mb on disk - Inference is ~500x faster than the distilled base model (bge-base), on a CPU - New models can be distilled in 30 seconds on a CPU without requiring a dataset - just a vocabulary - Numpy-only inference: The packaged can be install the package with minimal…

Flow Matching model inference in C▲5
As the title and description of the GitHub repo suggest, I’m working on a small project for purely educational purposes, with the goal of implementing generative model inference (small models capable of modeling 2D distributions) based on the Flow Matching paradigm in C. I’ve worked on generative AI models based on Flow Matching from a more “abstract” perspective, using frameworks like PyTorch, and I wanted to understand what goes on behind the scenes. The repository is still a work in progress and is also one of my first "serious" projects in C.

A surprisingly effective way to predict token importance in LLM prompts▲14
We explored a novel method to gauge the significance of tokens in prompts given to large language models, without needing direct model access. Essentially, we just did an ablation study on the prompt using cosine similarity of the embeddings as the measure. We got surprisingly promising results when comparing this really simple approach to integrated gradients. Curious to hear thoughts from the community!

Hello! So, I am experimenting with new approaches to automated machine learning, where you don't need anything besides either data or prompt This is a first platform from my auto ml serie called Łukasiewicz (Jan Łukasiewicz was a logician who created Polish notation) I much appreciate your feedback and if you want to try it out, I created a -75% off promo code "HACKERNEWS" on credits, so it hopefully will cover at least some of computing expenses, but more importantly will let you play with the platform at almost no cost Thank you!

ESM C, setting a new state of the art for protein language models▲11
Hey HN! We're releasing ESM C, a series of protein language models that set a new state of the art. By training on metagenomics and fine-tuning on UniRef, we're able to match ESM2 650M with ESM C 300M, and ESM C 6B has incredible unsupervised contact precision performance. These models are meant to be used as base models and representation learning models for protein sequences, and we'll release a preprint describing exact details soon.
