Quick Summary
The Qwen3 Embedding model series is the latest proprietary model of the Qwen family, specifically designed for text embedding and ranking tasks.
Code Examples
Usagepython
# Requires transformers>=4.51.0
# Requires sentence-transformers>=2.7.0
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
# Load the model
model = SentenceTransformer("Qwen/Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B")
# We recommend enabling flash_attention_2 for better acceleration and memory saving,
# together with setting `padding_side` to "left":
# model = SentenceTransformer(
# "Qwen/Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B",
# model_kwargs={"attn_implementation": "flash_attention_2", "device_map": "auto"},
# tokenizer_kwargs={"padding_side": "left"},
# )
# The queries and documents to embed
queries = [
"What is the capital of China?",
"Explain gravity",
]
documents = [
"The capital of China is Beijing.",
"Gravity is a force that attracts two bodies towards each other. It gives weight to physical objects and is responsible for the movement of planets around the sun.",
]
# Encode the queries and documents. Note that queries benefit from using a prompt
# Here we use the prompt called "query" stored under `model.prompts`, but you can
# also pass your own prompt via the `prompt` argument
query_embeddings = model.encode(queries, prompt_name="query")
document_embeddings = model.encode(documents)
# Compute the (cosine) similarity between the query and document embeddings
similarity = model.similarity(query_embeddings, document_embeddings)
print(similarity)
