sentence_similarity_nepali_v2

by Yubraj Sigdel syubraj/sentence_similarity_nepali_v2

sentence_similarity_nepali_v2 is an open-weight model for sentence similarity from Yubraj Sigdel. It has 82M parameters and a 512-token context. At 16-bit it needs about 0.2 GB of GPU memory, which fits on 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest prices in the SAVRN Index. It draws 355 downloads a month.

A Nepali sentence-embedding model. It maps a Nepali sentence (Devanagari script) to a 768-dimensional vector, so that sentences with similar meaning end up close together under cosine similarity.

Model Card

A Nepali sentence-embedding model. It maps a Nepali sentence (Devanagari script) to a 768-dimensional vector, so that sentences with similar meaning end up close together under cosine similarity. It is a Sentence Transformers model fine-tuned from Rajan/NepaliBERT on syubraj/stsbnepali, a Nepali translation of the STS Benchmark. The model was trained to output a cosine similarity that matches the STS score divided by 5. A score near 1.0 means the two sentences say the same thing, and a score near 0.0 means they are unrelated. The pooling step is a mean over token embeddings, weighted by the attention mask. - Scoring how similar two Nepali sentences are. - Semantic search and duplicate or…
