Transformers v5.19.0 adds multimodal EmbeddingGemma 2 and exposes MoE router logits
EmbeddingGemma 2 maps text, images, audio and video into a shared 768-dimensional vector space, with shorter Matryoshka output options; MoE models also expose router logits. The release offers concrete retrieval capabilities and changes that may affect model integrations.
- What
- EmbeddingGemma 2 adds multimodal embeddings to Transformers v5.19.0.
- How
- It encodes text, images, audio, and video into a shared 768-dimensional vector space, with optional embedding truncation and tower disabling.
- Why it matters
- Engineers can reduce memory by disabling unused towers; MoE callers should read router logits from the updated output classes when requested.
