Adapting Multilingual Embedding Models to Turkish via Cross-Lingual Tokenizer Surgery and Offline Distillation

M. Ali Bayram, Banu Diri, Savaş Yıldırım

Sentence embeddings are a foundational component for semantic search, clustering, classification, and retrieval-augmented generation. This paper presents embeddingmagibu-200m, a Turkish-focused sentence embedding model that produces 768-dimensional L2-normalized vectors and supports an 8,192-token context window, far exceeding the 512-token limit of earlier BERT-based Turkish encoders. Instead of full pretraining, an efficient three-stage adaptation pipeline is introduced: (1) construct a Turkish-optimized multilingual tokenizer with a 131,072 vocabulary by pruning redundant tokens from the teacher's vocabulary and incorporating multilingual tokens via frequency analysis on a 40-language corpus, (2) clone a teacher embedding model while preserving transformer backbone weights and initializing a compatible embedding table for the new vocabulary via mean-composition token mapping, and (3) perform offline embedding distillation from precomputed teacher vectors using a cosine similarity objective over a balanced 40-language Wikipedia corpus. The resulting student model contains approximately 200M parameters and trains in roughly four hours on a single GPU by avoiding online teacher inference during training, at a total cost of

5-

20. Empirically, Pearson/Spearman correlations of 77.55%/77.45% are obtained on STSbTR, surpassing the 300M-parameter teacher model (73.84%/72.92%). On TR-MTEB (26 tasks), a mean score of 63.9% is achieved (7th out of 26 models), providing a competitive cost-quality trade-off with 33% fewer parameters than the teacher. To facilitate reproducibility and downstream use, all artifacts are released including model weights, tokenizer files, precomputed embedding datasets, and open-source cloning and distillation tooling.
