German-RAG-BGE-M3-TRIPLES-HESSIAN-AI

German-RAG-BGE-M3-TRIPLES-HESSIAN-AI

This is a sentence-transformers model trained on this Dataset with roughly 300k Triple-Samples. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 1024-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more. It was merged with the Base-Model BAAI/bge-m3 again to maintain performance on other languages again.

Accuracy is calculated by evaluating if the relevant context is the highest ranking embedding of the whole context array. See Eval-Dataset and Evaluation Code here

Usage

Direct Usage (Sentence Transformers)

First install the Sentence Transformers library:

pip install -U sentence-transformers

Then you can load this model and run inference.

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("avemio/German-RAG-BGE-M3-TRIPLES-HESSIAN-AI")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'The weather is lovely today.',
    "It's so sunny outside!",
    'He drove to the stadium.',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 1024]

# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities.shape)
# [3, 3]
