# SentenceTransformer
This is a [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) model trained on the [sentence-transformers/stsb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sentence-transformers/stsb) dataset. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 300-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more.
## Model Details
### Model Description
- **Model Type:** Sentence Transformer
- **Maximum Sequence Length:** 1000000 tokens
- **Output Dimensionality:** 300 tokens
- **Similarity Function:** Cosine Similarity
- **Training Dataset:**
- [sentence-transformers/stsb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sentence-transformers/stsb)
- **Language:** en
### Model Sources
- **Documentation:** [Sentence Transformers Documentation](https://sbert.net)
- **Repository:** [Sentence Transformers on GitHub](https://github.com/UKPLab/sentence-transformers)
- **Hugging Face:** [Sentence Transformers on Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/models?library=sentence-transformers)
### Full Model Architecture
```

)
```
## 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("tomaarsen/glove-mean-pooling-sts")
# Run inference
sentences = [
'A baby is laughing.',
'The baby laughed in his car seat.',
'A person is combing a cat hair.',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 300]
# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings)
print(similarities.shape)
# [3, 3]
```
