In this report, we introduce Piccolo2, an embedding model that surpasses other models in the comprehensive evaluation over 6 tasks on CMTEB benchmark, setting a new state-of-the-art. Piccolo2 primarily leverages an efficient multi-task hybrid loss training approach, effectively harnessing textual data and labels from diverse downstream tasks. In addition, Piccolo2 scales up the embedding dimension and uses MRL training to support more flexible vector dimensions.

The foundation model is not the last chapter of the model production pipeline. Transferring with few data in a general way to thousands of downstream tasks is becoming a trend of the foundation model's application. In this paper, we proposed a universal transfer framework: One to Transfer All (OTA) to transfer any Vision Foundation Model (VFM) to any downstream tasks with few downstream data. We first transfer a VFM to a task-specific model by Image Re-representation Fine-tuning (IRF) then distilling knowledge from a task-specific model to a deployed model with data produced by Downstream Image-Guided Generation (DIGG). OTA has no dependency on upstream data, VFM, and downstream tasks when transferring. It also provides a way for VFM researchers to release their upstream information for better transferring but not leaking data due to privacy requirements. Massive experiments validate the effectiveness and superiority of our methods in few data setting. Our code will be released.
