This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from intfloat/e5-base-v2 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.

python

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("maticzav/e5-base-legal")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    '1. The Board Member agrees that the Confidential Information he or she receives shall be used solely for the benefit of the HNBA Board Work, and that all rights to the proprietary and novel features contained in the Confidential Information are reserved by the disclosing Party. 6. The Board Member agrees that no license under any patent, copyright or other intellectual property right is granted by implication or otherwise to Board Members under this Agreement.',
    'Agreement shall not grant Receiving Party any right to Confidential Information.',
    'Receiving Party may share some Confidential Information with some third-parties (including consultants, agents and professional advisors).',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 768]

# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities)
# tensor([[ 1.0000, -0.0609,  0.4630],
#         [-0.0609,  1.0000,  0.0028],
#         [ 0.4630,  0.0028,  1.0000]])
