This is a Cross Encoder model finetuned from microsoft/deberta-v3-base using the sentence-transformers library. It computes scores for pairs of texts, which can be used for text reranking and semantic search.

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 CrossEncoder

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = CrossEncoder("tani-at-nola/reranker-deberta-v3-base-nli")
# Get scores for pairs of texts
pairs = [
    ['The sisters are hugging goodbye while holding to go packages after just eating lunch.', 'Two women are embracing while holding to go packages.'],
    ['Two woman are holding packages.', 'Two women are embracing while holding to go packages.'],
    ['The men are fighting outside a deli.', 'Two women are embracing while holding to go packages.'],
    ['Two kids in numbered jerseys wash their hands.', 'Two young children in blue jerseys, one with the number 9 and one with the number 2 are standing on wooden steps in a bathroom and washing their hands in a sink.'],
    ['Two kids at a ballgame wash their hands.', 'Two young children in blue jerseys, one with the number 9 and one with the number 2 are standing on wooden steps in a bathroom and washing their hands in a sink.'],
]
scores = model.predict(pairs)
print(scores.shape)
# (5,)

# Or rank different texts based on similarity to a single text
ranks = model.rank(
    'The sisters are hugging goodbye while holding to go packages after just eating lunch.',
    [
        'Two women are embracing while holding to go packages.',
        'Two women are embracing while holding to go packages.',
        'Two women are embracing while holding to go packages.',
        'Two young children in blue jerseys, one with the number 9 and one with the number 2 are standing on wooden steps in a bathroom and washing their hands in a sink.',
        'Two young children in blue jerseys, one with the number 9 and one with the number 2 are standing on wooden steps in a bathroom and washing their hands in a sink.',
    ]
)
# [{'corpus_id': ..., 'score': ...}, {'corpus_id': ..., 'score': ...}, ...]
