## What are Embedding Space Maps?

<!-- This section describes the evaluation protocols and provides the results. -->
Embedding Space Maps (ESMs) are neural networks that approximate the effect of fine-tuning a language model on a task. They can be used to quickly transform embeddings from a base model to approximate how a fine-tuned model would embed the the input text.
ESMs can be used for intermediate task selection with the ESM-LogME workflow.

## How can I use Embedding Space Maps for Intermediate Task Selection?
[![PyPI version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/hf-dataset-selector.svg)](https://pypi.org/project/hf-dataset-selector)

We release **hf-dataset-selector**, a Python package for intermediate task selection using Embedding Space Maps.

**hf-dataset-selector** fetches ESMs for a given language model and uses it to find the best dataset for applying intermediate training to the target task. ESMs are found by their tags on the Huggingface Hub.

```python
from hfselect import Dataset, compute_task_ranking

# Load target dataset from the Hugging Face Hub
dataset = Dataset.from_hugging_face(
    name="stanfordnlp/imdb",
    split="train",
    text_col="text",
    label_col="label",
    is_regression=False,
    num_examples=1000,
    seed=42
)

# Fetch ESMs and rank tasks
task_ranking = compute_task_ranking(
    dataset=dataset,
    model_name="bert-base-multilingual-uncased"
)

# Display top 5 recommendations
print(task_ranking[:5])
```
