SentenceTransformer based on sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2

This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 384-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("Madras1/minilm-gooaq-mnr-v3")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'what are game design patterns?',
    "Design patterns are generalized solutions to generalized problems that occur with some modicum of frequency when you're creating software using the object oriented programming paradigm.",
    'The sixth and final season of “Empire” was scheduled to run for 20 episodes, however, the production shutdown caused by the pandemic meant that only 18 episodes could be completed. The result is that the final three episodes, including what will now be the series finale, will air on April 21 on Fox.',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 384]

# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities)
# tensor([[1.0000, 0.6806, 0.0028],
#         [0.6806, 1.0000, 0.0402],
#         [0.0028, 0.0402, 1.0000]])

`explain why wooden or concrete sleepers are kept below the railway line?`	`Accepted Answer: Wooden or concrete sleepers are kept below the railway line so that there is less pressure of the train on the ground and railway line may not sink into the ground.`
`what is the percent composition by mass of carbon in carbon dioxide co2?`	`Now, to know the percent composition of Carbon and Oxygen . We will divide their weight with the total weight of CO2. % C = 12.01/44.01 = 0.2729= 27.29% (we will divide 0.2729 with 100 to take the percentage). % O = 32.00/44.01 =0.7271 =72.71 %O in CO2.`
`is pdfcreator safe to use?`	`I've been using PDFCreator for several years, and can assure you it is quite safe. The only annoyance is how frequently it updates, and the additional features they constantly want you to install.`
