jina-embeddings-v5-omni-small on AXERA NPU
Ready-to-run deployment package for `jinaai/jina-embeddings-v5-omni-small` on AX650 / NPU3.
- Runtime: bundled
axllmservice with an OpenAI-compatible/v1/embeddingsAPI - Inputs: text and images through the packaged API and demo; fixed-profile image and audio encoder models are included
- Output: one L2-normalized 1024-dimensional embedding per request
- Tasks: retrieval, clustering, classification, and text matching, selected at runtime without loading four complete text backbones
- Included assets: compiled
.axmodelfiles, tokenizer data, packed task adapters, sample images, validation results, and a browser demo
Supported Platform
- [x] AX650 / NPU3
- [x] Single NPU
Performance
All measurements below were taken on one AX650 NPU with the files in this package. Standalone .axmodel latency uses 3 warm-up runs followed by 20 measured runs. API latency includes tokenization, adapter selection, model execution, and local HTTP overhead.
End-to-End Text Embedding and Task Switching
The model encodes each input in one forward pass. It has a prefill stage but no autoregressive decode stage.
Standalone Module Latency
Standalone results were measured with ax_run_model --warmup=3 --repeat=20; the text layer models additionally use --group=1. The recorded averages are available in `validation/ax_run_model_average.json`. Task-switch samples are available in `validation/task_switch_client_latency.json` and `validation/task_switch_internal_latency.json`.
Runtime Memory
CMM used is the increase in allocated CMM between the stopped-service baseline and the measured running state on the same board. PSS is the proportional set size reported for the axllm process after the smoke test. These are consumed amounts and do not depend on the board's installed CMM capacity.
The audio encoder is initialized lazily and was not loaded in this text smoke-test state. The measurement record is available in `validation/runtime_memory.json`.
Package Size
The four tasks share the same text backbone. Package sizes describe files on storage and are independent of the runtime CMM and OS-memory measurements above.
Functional Validation
Machine-readable results are stored under `validation/`.

Download the Package
mkdir -p AXERA-TECH/jina-embeddings-v5-omni-small
cd AXERA-TECH/jina-embeddings-v5-omni-small
hf download AXERA-TECH/jina-embeddings-v5-omni-small --local-dir .Copy the downloaded directory to the AX650 board before continuing.
Run on the Board
From the package root, start the bundled service on port 18201:
bash ./start_axllm.sh 18201In another terminal, verify the service and model id:
curl http://127.0.0.1:18201/health
curl http://127.0.0.1:18201/v1/modelsA healthy service returns:
{
"concurrency": 0,
"max_concurrency": 1,
"status": "healthy"
}The model list contains AXERA-TECH/jina-embeddings-v5-omni-small.
Select a Task Adapter
Set task_id in each embedding request:
Adapter files are validated during model initialization. A task switch then loads the selected matrices without repeating the full file validation.
OpenAI-Compatible Text Request
curl http://127.0.0.1:18201/v1/embeddings \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
"model": "AXERA-TECH/jina-embeddings-v5-omni-small",
"task_id": "retrieval",
"input_type": "query",
"input": "a photo of a cat"
}'The embedding is returned in data[0].embedding. It contains 1024 floating-point values with an L2 norm of approximately 1.0. For retrieval, use input_type: query for the search query and input_type: document for indexed text, images, or audio.
The packaged smoke test verifies retrieval ranking, clustering separation, and a bit-exact retrieval -> clustering -> retrieval round trip:
python3 scripts/test_retrieval_clustering.py \
--url http://127.0.0.1:18201/v1/embeddingsBrowser Demo
Keep axllm running and start the packaged web application in another terminal:
python3 demo/openai_task_switch_web.py \
--axllm-url http://127.0.0.1:18201/v1/embeddings \
--host 0.0.0.0 \
--port 8080The web process checks the embedding service before it starts. Open http://<board-ip>:8080 to search the 12 packaged animal images with natural language. The first search creates an in-memory image index; later searches reuse the cached image embeddings and compute only the new text embedding.
Open http://<board-ip>:8080/index.html for the complete capability validation. It exercises all four tasks and then checks a bit-exact switch back to retrieval.
For the query 找出所有猫的图像, all three cat images are ranked first:
<table> <tr> <td align="center"><img src="assets/cat2.jpg" alt="cat2.jpg" width="220"><br><b>1. cat2.jpg</b><br>cosine 0.343559</td> <td align="center"><img src="assets/cat1.jpeg" alt="cat1.jpeg" width="220"><br><b>2. cat1.jpeg</b><br>cosine 0.336765</td> <td align="center"><img src="assets/cat0.jpeg" alt="cat0.jpeg" width="220"><br><b>3. cat_0.jpeg</b><br>cosine 0.296639</td> </tr> </table>

Fixed Input Profiles
The final embedding output is always [1, 1024] and L2 normalized.
The vision and audio task-specific mapper files are selected together with the active adapter. Image resolutions or audio lengths outside these profiles require rebuilding the corresponding media modules.
Adapter selection is mutable state within one service instance. Serialize requests that change task_id, or run separate service instances when requests must be isolated by task. The first switch may include filesystem cache overhead; use the warm measurements above for steady-state planning.
Conversion References
If you need the original model files or want to rebuild the deployment artifacts, start with:
- Original Hugging Face model: jinaai/jina-embeddings-v5-omni-small
- AXERA conversion and deployment workflow: AXERA-TECH/jina_embeddings_v5_omni.axera
The public conversion workflow requires Pulsar2 7.0 or later. Pulsar2 is needed only to rebuild the deployment artifacts, not to run this downloaded package.
