WeMM-Embedding-4B

GitHub

WeMM-Embedding-4B is a universal multimodal embedding model built on Qwen3.5. It accepts text, images, videos, visual documents, and interleaved multimodal inputs, and returns a 2,560-dimensional L2-normalized embedding. Audio input is not supported.

Installation

bash

pip install torch transformers==5.2.0 "qwen-vl-utils[decord]==0.0.14" \
  "sentence-transformers>=5.7.0" "accelerate>=1.1.0"

Transformers

python

import torch
from qwen_vl_utils import process_vision_info
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoProcessor

model_id = "tencent/WeMM-Embedding-4B"
processor = AutoProcessor.from_pretrained(model_id, trust_remote_code=True)
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(
    model_id, trust_remote_code=True, dtype=torch.bfloat16
).cuda().eval()

messages = [{"role": "user", "content": [
    {"type": "image", "image": "/path/to/image.jpg"},
    {"type": "video", "video": "/path/to/video.mp4"},
    {"type": "text", "text": "This can be any text input."},
]}]
text = processor.apply_chat_template(
    messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=False
)
images, videos, video_kwargs = process_vision_info(
    messages,
    image_patch_size=16,
    return_video_kwargs=True,
    return_video_metadata=True,
)
if videos is not None:
    videos, video_metadata = zip(*videos)
    videos, video_metadata = list(videos), list(video_metadata)
else:
    video_metadata = None
inputs = processor(
    text=text,
    images=images,
    videos=videos,
    video_metadata=video_metadata,
    return_tensors="pt",
    **video_kwargs,
).to("cuda")

with torch.inference_mode():
    embedding = model.embedding(**inputs)

Use any subset of the content items to encode text, image, or video independently.

Sentence Transformers

python

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

model_id = "tencent/WeMM-Embedding-4B"
model = SentenceTransformer(model_id, trust_remote_code=True)

queries = [
    "Which Llama 4 model variants are available?",
    "How is mapo tofu prepared?",
]
documents = [
    "Mapo tofu is a Sichuan dish of soft tofu simmered in a spicy, numbing sauce of chili bean paste and Sichuan peppercorn.",
    {
        "image": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/sentence-transformers/example-documents/resolve/main/llama4_hgf.png",
    },
    {
        "video": "https://huggingface.co/datasets/sentence-transformers/example-documents/resolve/main/mapo_tofu.mp4",
    },
]

query_embeddings = model.encode_query(queries)
document_embeddings = model.encode_document(documents)
print(query_embeddings.shape, document_embeddings.shape)
# (2, 2560) (3, 2560)

similarities = model.similarity(query_embeddings, document_embeddings)
print(similarities)
# tensor([[ 0.0711,  0.5056,  0.0359],
#         [ 0.7495,  0.1282,  0.4787]])

Each input is a string, a URL or path, a PIL.Image, or a dict combining image, video, and text keys. Chat messages such as {"role": "user", "content": [{"type": "image", "image": ...}, {"type": "text", "text": ...}]} are also accepted, which is the way to interleave several images or videos in one input.

Matryoshka Embeddings

python

d = 256
embedding_d = torch.nn.functional.normalize(embedding[..., :d], dim=-1)

With Sentence Transformers, pass truncate_dim and let it renormalize:

embeddings_d = model.encode_document(documents, truncate_dim=d, normalize_embeddings=True)

Use a dimension listed in model.config.matryoshka_dimensions.
