stsb-distilbert-base-ocl

SentenceTransformer based on sentence-transformers/stsb-distilbert-base

This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from sentence-transformers/stsb-distilbert-base on the quora-duplicates 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("yahyaabd/stsb-distilbert-base-ocl")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'What is the best fact checking sources that all Quorans will most trust?',
    'What is the most memorable book that Quorans have read?',
    'Is working in McKinsey one of the best and surest ways to get into Harvard Business School?',
]
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]
