SentenceTransformer based on google-bert/bert-base-uncased

This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from google-bert/bert-base-uncased. 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.

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("tomaarsen/bert-base-uncased-tsdae-askubuntu")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'dual boot ubuntu, 10.04 - /home cannot be initialized upon',
    'dual boot - ubuntu 9.10 , 10.04 - /home can not be initialized upon startup',
    'is it possible to view pdfs right in chrome without downloading them first ?',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 768]

# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities.shape)
# [3, 3]
