SentenceTransformer based on Alibaba-NLP/gte-large-en-v1.5

This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from Alibaba-NLP/gte-large-en-v1.5. 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.

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("novacardsai/gte-large-medical")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'what is craniosynostosis? it is the premature fusion of cranial sutures.',
    'alzheimers is more common in female sex',
    'class 6 mullerian malformation is arcuate uterus',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 1024]

# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities)
# tensor([[0.9961, 0.8242, 0.6445],
#         [0.8242, 1.0000, 0.7070],
#         [0.6445, 0.7070, 1.0000]], dtype=torch.bfloat16)
