Model weights for the JaColBERTv2.4 checkpoint, which is the pre-post-training version of JaColBERTv2.5, using an entirely overhauled training recipe and trained on just 40% of the data of JaColBERTv2.

This model largely outperforms all previous approaches, including JaColBERTV2 multilingual models such as BGE-M3, on all datasets.

This page will be updated with the full details and the model report in the next few days.
