Researchers have developed a theoretical framework to explain why embedding lengths in contrastive embedding models, often disregarded in favor of cosine similarity, correlate with semantic properties like concept specificity and token frequency. The study derives an analytic formula showing that embedding length naturally encodes this information as a byproduct of the training process. This finding offers a grounded explanation for a previously heuristic observation and suggests these signals can serve as free calibration tools for specific models and retrieval tasks. AI
