# 🇩🇪 german-multilingual-e5-small |
|
|
|
This model is a 66.0% smaller version of [intfloat/multilingual-e5-small](https://huggingface.co/intfloat/multilingual-e5-small) |
|
for the German language, created using the [mtem-pruner](https://huggingface.co/spaces/antoinelouis/mtem-pruner) space. |
|
|
|
This pruned model should perform similarly to the original model for German language tasks with a much smaller |
|
memory footprint. However, it may not perform well for other languages present in the original multilingual model as tokens not |
|
commonly used in German were removed from the original multilingual model's vocabulary. |
|
|
|
## Usage |
|
|
|
You can use this model with the Transformers library: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from transformers import AutoModel, AutoTokenizer |
|
|
|
model_name = "rhlsinghal1s/german-multilingual-e5-small" |
|
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(model_name, trust_remote_code=True) |
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name, trust_remote_code=True, use_fast=True) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
Or with the sentence-transformers library: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer |
|
|
|
model = SentenceTransformer("rhlsinghal1s/german-multilingual-e5-small") |
|
``` |
