# Jina Embeddings c1: A Small but Performant Code Embedding Model

## Intended Usage & Model Info
`jina-embeddings-c1` is an embedding model for code retrieval. 
The model supports various types of code retrieval (natural language-to-code, code-to-code, code-to-natural language, code-to-completion) and technical question answering across 15+ programming languages. 


Built on [Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-0.5B](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-0.5B), `jina-embeddings-c1` features:

- **Multilingual support** (15+ programming languages) and compatibility with a wide range of domains, including web development, software development, machine learning, data science, and educational coding problems.
- **Task-specific instruction prefixes** for NL2Code, Code2Code, Code2NL, Code2Completion, and Technical QA, which can be selected at inference time.
- **Flexible embedding size**: dense embeddings are 896-dimensional by default but can be truncated to as low as 64 with minimal performance loss.
