# RIME-7B

**RIME** (**R**ewrite-dr**I**ven **M**ultimodal **E**mbedding) is a generative multimodal embedding model based on Qwen2-VL-7B-Instruct, presented in the paper [Beyond Chain-of-Thought: Rewrite as a Universal Interface for Generative Multimodal Embeddings](https://huggingface.co/papers/2604.22280).

## Model Description

RIME jointly optimizes generation and embedding through a retrieval-friendly rewrite paradigm, producing both discriminative and generative multimodal embeddings for text, images, videos, and visual documents.

## Usage

See the [RIME repository](https://github.com/PeppaWu/RIME) for inference and evaluation examples.
