LaBSE is the top-performing model for multilingual bitext mining in MTEB evaluations

Summary

When the system needs to match or align sentences across different languages, LaBSE is the embedding model that outperforms all others on the standard MTEB benchmark for that task. Practically, this means any workflow depending on cross-language sentence pairing should default to LaBSE as the best-proven choice.
