+#### Reranker Model
+
+Llama Nemotron VL reranker models combine the same bidirectional Llama + SigLIP
+backbone with a sequence-classification head for cross-encoder scoring and reranking.

 ### BAAI/bge-m3
 
 The `BAAI/bge-m3` model comes with extra weights for sparse and colbert embeddings but unfortunately in its `config.json`
