bge-small-vscode-dup

by Musab Suhail Musab6969/bge-small-vscode-dup

bge-small-vscode-dup is an open-weight model for sentence similarity from Musab Suhail. It has 33M parameters and a 512-token context. At 16-bit it needs about 0.1 GB of GPU memory, which fits on 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest prices in the SAVRN Index.

This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 384-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, classification…

General Text Embeddings (GTE) model. Towards General Text Embeddings with Multi-stage Contrastive Learning The GTE models are trained by Alibaba DAMO Academy. They are mainly based on the BERT framework and currently offer three different sizes of models, including GTE-large, GTE-base, and GTE-small. The GTE models are trained on a large-scale corpus of relevance text pairs, covering a wide range of domains and scenarios. This enables the GTE models to be applied to various downstream tasks of text embeddings, including information retrieval, semantic textual similarity, text reranking, etc. We compared the performance of the GTE models with other popular text embedding models on the MTEB…

This is an updated version of cointegrated/rubert-tiny: a small Russian BERT-based encoder with high-quality sentence embeddings. This post in Russian gives more details. The differences from the previous version include: - sentence embeddings approximate LaBSE closer than before; - meaningful segment embeddings (tuned on the NLI task) - the model is focused only on Russian. The model should be used as is to produce sentence embeddings (e.g. for KNN classification of short texts) or fine-tuned for a downstream task. Sentence embeddings can be produced as follows: Alternatively, you can use the model with sentencetransformers: For those who want to run the inference with VLLM, there is a…
