Inference & serving
FlagEmbedding
Combines retrieval inference, configurable fine-tuning, training-data preparation and evaluation in one Python toolkit.
Overview
Research summary
FlagEmbedding provides Python components for developing retrieval systems. Applications can generate embeddings and rerank candidates through its inference interfaces, fine-tune supported retrievers and rerankers on custom data, and evaluate retrieval behavior. Training utilities include hard-negative mining and knowledge-distillation workflows, with configurable trainers for supported encoder and decoder architectures.
The toolkit supplies reusable software for adapting and testing retrieval components; model checkpoints are selected separately. Its code is MIT-licensed, while the terms of any selected model or dataset must be checked independently.
