 - Multi-Linguality: It can support more than 100 working languages. 
 - Multi-Granularity: It is able to process inputs of different granularities, spanning from short sentences to long documents of up to 8192 tokens. 
 
-**Some suggestions for retrieval pipeline in RAG:**
-We recommend to use following pipeline: hybrid retrieval + re-ranking. 
-- Hybrid retrieval leverages the strengths of various methods, offering higher accuracy and stronger generalization capabilities. 
-A classic example: using both embedding retrieval and the BM25 algorithm. 
-Now, you can try to use BGE-M3, which supports both embedding and sparse retrieval. 
-This allows you to obtain token weights (similar to the BM25) without any additional cost when generate dense embeddings.
-- As cross-encoder models, re-ranker demonstrates higher accuracy than bi-encoder embedding model. 
-Utilizing the re-ranking model (e.g., [bge-reranker](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/FlagEmbedding/reranker), [cohere-reranker](https://txt.cohere.com/rerank/)) after retrieval can further filter the selected text.

 ## News:
+- 2024/3/8: **Thanks for the [experimental results](https://towardsdatascience.com/openai-vs-open-source-multilingual-embedding-models-e5ccb7c90f05) from @[Yannael](https://huggingface.co/Yannael). In this benchmark, BGE-M3 achieves top performance in both English and other languages, surpassing models such as OpenAI.**
 - 2024/3/2: Release unified fine-tuning [example](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/examples/unified_finetune) and [data](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Shitao/bge-m3-data) 
 - 2024/2/6: We release the [MLDR](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Shitao/MLDR) (a long document retrieval dataset covering 13 languages) and [evaluation pipeline](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/C_MTEB/MLDR). 
 - 2024/2/1: **Thanks for the excellent tool from Vespa.** You can easily use multiple modes of BGE-M3 following this [notebook](https://github.com/vespa-engine/pyvespa/blob/master/docs/sphinx/source/examples/mother-of-all-embedding-models-cloud.ipynb)
