devdata-search-multilingual-e5-small-cgist-guide-e5cgist
A bi-encoder embedding model for search over structured statistical
metadata, part of the DevData Search family. It is a fine-tune of
intfloat/multilingual-e5-small produced with schema-invariant fine-tuning on
DevDataBench: full-schema
serialization with per-example field-order permutation and field dropout, so the
encoder binds meaning to field labels rather than to serialization order. This is
an embedding model that powers retrieval; it is not a hosted search service.
See the paper Field Order Should Not Matter: Permutation-Invariant Fine-Tuning for Structured Metadata Retrieval.
Training
- Base model:
intfloat/multilingual-e5-small - Loss:
cgist - GIST guide model:
ai4data/devdata-search-multilingual-e5-small-cgist - Field permutation:
True; field dropout:0.15 - Max sequence length:
512 - Query prefix:
query:; document prefix:passage:(prepend these when encoding)
Usage
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
model = SentenceTransformer("ai4data/devdata-search-multilingual-e5-small-cgist-guide-e5cgist")
queries = ["query: " + "mobile-broadband subscriptions per 100 people"]
docs = ["passage: " + "name: Active mobile-broadband subscriptions | ..."]
q = model.encode(queries)
d = model.encode(docs)
Cosine similarity of q and d ranks documents for each query.
