Jina CLIP v2

Jina CLIP v2 aligns text and images in one embedding space. It combines a 561-million-parameter Jina-XLM-RoBERTa text tower with a 304-million-parameter EVA02-L14 vision tower.

How the model works

The text encoder accepts up to 8,192 tokens, while the image encoder uses 512-by-512 inputs. Joint training supports text-to-image and text-to-text retrieval. Both towers return 1,024-dimensional representations that can be shortened to 64 dimensions. The model card lists 89 languages for multilingual image retrieval.Jina CLIP v2 model details

Use and access

The larger image input distinguishes v2 from v1's 224-by-224 input. Its text tower uses mean pooling, while its image tower uses the classification token. Jina provides weights and an embedding API. CC BY-NC 4.0 applies to the v2 weights, unlike the Apache 2.0 license on v1. CLIP v2 retrieves or matches content; it does not generate pictures.Jina CLIP v2 model detailsJina CLIP v2 technical overview
