# SentenceTransformer based on hon9kon9ize/bert-large-cantonese-nli

This is a [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) model finetuned from [hon9kon9ize/bert-large-cantonese-nli](https://huggingface.co/hon9kon9ize/bert-large-cantonese-nli) on the [yue-stsb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/hon9kon9ize/yue-stsb), [stsb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sentence-transformers/stsb) and [C-MTEB/STSB](https://huggingface.co/datasets/C-MTEB/STSB) dataset. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 1024-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more.

### Full Model Architecture

```
SentenceTransformer(
  (0): Transformer({'max_seq_length': 512, 'do_lower_case': False}) with Transformer model: BertModel 
  (1): Pooling({'word_embedding_dimension': 1024, 'pooling_mode_cls_token': False, 'pooling_mode_mean_tokens': True, 'pooling_mode_max_tokens': False, 'pooling_mode_mean_sqrt_len_tokens': False, 'pooling_mode_weightedmean_tokens': False, 'pooling_mode_lasttoken': False, 'include_prompt': True})
)
```

## Usage

### Direct Usage (Sentence Transformers)

First install the Sentence Transformers library:

```bash
pip install -U sentence-transformers
```

Then you can load this model and run inference.
```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("sentence_transformers_model_id")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    '一個細路女同一個細路仔喺度睇書。',
    '一個大啲嘅小朋友玩緊公仔,望住窗外。',
    '有個男人彈緊結他。',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 1024]

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