This model is a 70.91% smaller version of intfloat/multilingual-e5-small optimized for Zulu language via vocabulary size reduction using the trimming method.
This trimmed model should perform similarly to the original model with only 32,768 tokens and a much smaller memory footprint. However, it may not perform well for other languages as tokens not commonly used in the selected languages were removed from the vocabulary.
| Metric | Original | Trimmed | Reduction |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vocabulary size | 250,037 tokens | 32,768 tokens | 86.89% |
| Model size | 117,653,760 params | 34,222,464 params | 70.91% |
