This is a sentence-transformers model: It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 384 dimensional dense vector space and can be used for tasks like clustering or semantic search.
1from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
2sentences =["This is an example sentence","Each sentence is converted"]34model = SentenceTransformer('sentence-transformers/paraphrase-MiniLM-L6-v2')5embeddings = model.encode(sentences)6print(embeddings)
Usage (HuggingFace Transformers)
Without sentence-transformers, you can use the model like this: First, you pass your input through the transformer model, then you have to apply the right pooling-operation on-top of the contextualized word embeddings.
python
