ModernBERT Embed base Legal Matryoshka

This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from nomic-ai/nomic-embed-text-v2-moe on the json dataset. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 768-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more.

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("tsss1/modernbert-embed-base-legal-matryoshka-2")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'against six federal agencies pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”), 5 U.S.C. \n§ 552, claiming that the defendant agencies have violated the FOIA in numerous ways.1  NSC’s \nclaims run the gamut, including challenges to: the withholding of specific information; the \nadequacy of the agencies’ search efforts; the refusal to process FOIA requests; the refusal to',
    'How many federal agencies is the action against?',
    'Which case was quoted in Entertainment Ltd. v. U.S. Dep’t of Interior regarding the retroactivity of statutes?',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 768]

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