MoganColBERT-TR: New Turkish Multi-Vector Retrieval Model Unveiled

Researchers have developed MoganColBERT-TR, a new multi-vector retrieval model specifically designed for the Turkish language. This model builds upon a previously trained ModernBERT encoder and adapts it to the ColBERT objective through distillation. MoganColBERT-TR represents queries and documents at the token level, utilizing a late-interaction scoring mechanism. Evaluations on five Turkish BEIR datasets demonstrate its strong performance, outperforming larger models and achieving a competitive second place. AI

IMPACT This model advances retrieval capabilities for Turkish, potentially improving search and information access in the language.

    MoganColBERT-TR: A Late-Interaction Multi-Vector Retrieval Model for Turkish

    arXiv:2608.26344v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We previously reported a ModernBERT encoder trained from scratch for Turkish (MoganBERT-TR) and a single-vector embedding model built on top of it (MoganBERT-embed). This work introduces the third model in that lineage: MoganColBERT…
