What is recorded here?
Packaged Chinese evaluation/training resources and a staged embedding recipe, then extended the family with shared dense, lexical and multi-vector retrieval heads whose integrated scores teach each head through self-distillation.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
C-Pack original C-TEM resource names and later BGE-M3 extension are source-specific stages, not retroactively identical models. M3's integrated teacher is an empirical training choice, not guaranteed more accurate than each head. Dense, sparse and late-interaction components are inherited; full multi-vector scoring has extra cost. The retrieval method does not itself establish a medical benefit.
