Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B

e5-omni-7B is a high-performance omni-modal embedding model built on top of Qwen2.5-Omni-7B.
It produces a single, unified embedding space for text, images, audio, and video—making cross-modal retrieval accurate and easy to use across a wide range of applications. Paper.

📝 Text 🖼️ Image 🎧 Audio 🎥 Video

Experimental Results

Our model achieves strong performance on MMEB-V2 and AudioCaps benchmarks.

Usage

Using Sentence Transformers

Install Sentence Transformers with the multimodal extras (for image, audio, and video support):

pip install "sentence_transformers[image,audio,video]" "transformers>=5.6.0"

python

import torch
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

model = SentenceTransformer(
    "Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B",
    model_kwargs={
        "torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16,
        "attn_implementation": "flash_attention_2",  # pip install kernels; recommended but not mandatory
    },
)

# For video on smaller GPUs, cap the processor up front:
model[0].processing_kwargs.update({
    "video": {"max_pixels": 64 * 28 * 28, "do_sample_frames": True, "fps": 1},
})

🎬 Video Retrieval

python

example_query = "How to cook Mapo Tofu?"
example_videos = [
    "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/mapo_tofu.mp4",
    "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/zhajiang_noodle.mp4",
]

query_embedding = model.encode_query(example_query)
document_embeddings = model.encode_document(example_videos, batch_size=1)
print(model.similarity(query_embedding, document_embeddings))
# Video similarities: tensor([[0.4156, 0.2783]])

🎵 Audio Retrieval

python

example_query = "A light piano piece"
example_audios = [
    "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/joe_hisaishi_summer.mp3",
    "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/jay_chou_superman_cant_fly.mp3",
]

query_embedding = model.encode_query(example_query)
document_embeddings = model.encode_document(example_audios, batch_size=1)
print(model.similarity(query_embedding, document_embeddings))
# Audio similarities: tensor([[0.2219, 0.1642]])

📈 Image Document Retrieval (Image, Chart, PDF)

python

example_query = "How many input modality does Qwen2.5-Omni support?"
example_images = [
    "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/qwen2.5omni_hgf.png",
    "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/llama4_hgf.png",
]

query_embedding = model.encode_query(example_query)
document_embeddings = model.encode_document(example_images, batch_size=1)
print(model.similarity(query_embedding, document_embeddings))
# Image similarities: tensor([[0.4351, 0.2442]])

🌍 Multilingual Text Retrieval

python

example_query = "氧气在空气中占比多少？"
example_texts = [
    "空气是指大气层中由不同气体和各类飘浮在其中的固体与液体颗粒（大气颗粒与气溶胶）所组成的气态混合物。地球大气层的空气主要由78.1%的氮气、20.9%氧气、0.9%的氩气和1~4%的水蒸气组成，其成分并不是固定的，随着高度、气压、温度的改变和对流情况不同，局部空气的组成比例也会改变。空气在大气层（特别是对流层）中的流动形成了风和曳流、气旋、龙卷等自然现象，而空气中飘浮的颗粒则形成了云、雾、霾和沙尘暴等短期天气情况。空气在海洋和陆地之间跨区域流动所承载的湿度和热能传导也是水循环和气候变率与变化的关键一环。",
    "水（化学式：H2O）是一种无机化合物，在常温且无杂质中是无色[1]无味不导电的透明液体，也会通过蒸发产生气态的水蒸气（这种蒸发可以发生在任何温度下，同时取决于与空气接触的表面积和湿度差）。在标准大气压下，水的凝固点是0 °C（32 °F；273 K），沸点是100 °C（212 °F；373 K）。",
]

query_embedding = model.encode_query(example_query)
document_embeddings = model.encode_document(example_texts, batch_size=1)
print(model.similarity(query_embedding, document_embeddings))
# Text similarities: tensor([[0.3219, 0.2156]])

🧩 Multimodal Inputs

To embed a document that combines multiple modalities, pass a dict with any combination of "text", "image", "audio", and "video" keys instead of a single path or string:

python

documents = [
    {
        "text": "A cooking tutorial for Mapo Tofu",
        "video": "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/mapo_tofu.mp4",
    },
    {
        "image": "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/qwen2.5omni_hgf.png",
        "audio": "https://huggingface.co/Haon-Chen/e5-omni-7B/resolve/main/assets/joe_hisaishi_summer.mp3",
    },
]
document_embeddings = model.encode_document(documents, batch_size=1)

    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
).to(device).eval()

processor.tokenizer.padding_side = "left"
model.padding_side = "left"

# Function to Encode Message
def encode_message(message):
    texts = processor.apply_chat_template(message, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)[0] + "<|endoftext|>"
    audio_inputs, image_inputs, video_inputs = process_mm_info(message, use_audio_in_video=True)

    inputs = processor(
        text=texts,
        audio=audio_inputs,
        images=image_inputs,
        videos=video_inputs,
        return_tensors="pt",
        padding="longest",
    )
    for k in inputs:
        inputs[k] = inputs[k].to(device)

    cache_position = torch.arange(0, inputs["input_ids"].shape[1], device=device)
    inputs = model.prepare_inputs_for_generation(**inputs, use_cache=True, cache_position=cache_position)
    model_outputs = model(**inputs, return_dict=True, output_hidden_states=True)

    last_hidden_state = model_outputs.hidden_states[-1]
