DenseOn with the LateOn: Fully Open Dense and Late-Interaction Models for Multilingual, Long-Context, and Code Search· DenseOn 与 LateOn：多语言、长上下文和代码搜索的完全开放密集和延迟交互模型

State-of-the-art retrieval models increasingly rely on closed training data, creating a reproducibility gap. We present an open end-to-end recipe for training retrieval models and study how English supervision transfers to multilingual retrieval through translate-train. We first reconstruct and curate 665M English contrastive pre-training pairs from 1.4B pairs across 34 public sources and build 1.88M supervised fine-tuning pairs with mined hard negatives. Training yields two 149M-parameter models: DenseOn, a single-vector dense model, and LateOn, a ColBERT-style late-interaction model. They achieve 56.20 and 57.22 average nDCG@10 on BEIR, respectively, setting new state-of-the-art results for this size class. We then translate the validated English data into eight languages, yielding 2.8B
