# SentenceTransformer based on NbAiLab/nb-bert-base
This is a [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) model finetuned from [NbAiLab/nb-bert-base](https://huggingface.co/NbAiLab/nb-bert-base). It is the second version of the existing [NbAiLab/nb-sbert-base](https://huggingface.co/NbAiLab/nb-sbert-base) model, providing a larger max sequence length for inputs.
The model 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. The easiest way is to simply measure the cosine distance between two sentences. Sentences that are close to each other in meaning, will have a small cosine distance and a similarity close to 1. The model is trained in such a way that similar sentences in different languages should also be close to each other. Ideally, an English-Norwegian sentence pair should have high similarity.
## Model Details
### Model Description
- **Model Type:** Sentence Transformer
- **Base model:** [NbAiLab/nb-bert-base](https://huggingface.co/NbAiLab/nb-bert-base) <!-- at revision 9417c3f62a3adc99f17ff92bff446f35d011f994 -->
- **Maximum Sequence Length:** 512 tokens
- **Output Dimensionality:** 768 dimensions
- **Similarity Function:** Cosine Similarity
- **Training Dataset:** Subset of [NbAiLab/mnli-norwegian](https://huggingface.co/datasets/NbAiLab/mnli-norwegian)

### EU AI Act
This release is a **non-generative encoder model** whose outputs are vectors/scores rather than language or media. Its intended functionality is limited to representation, retrieval, ranking, or classification support. On that basis, the release is preliminarily assessed as not falling within the provider obligations for GPAI models under the EU AI Act definitions, subject to legal confirmation if capability scope or marketed generality changes. For more information, see the Model Documentation Form [here](./Model_Documentation_Form_nb-sbert-v2-base.pdf).
### Model Sources

### Full Model Architecture
```
SentenceTransformer(
(0): Transformer({'max_seq_length': 512, 'do_lower_case': False, 'architecture': 'BertModel'})
(1): Pooling({'word_embedding_dimension': 768, '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("NbAiLab/nb-sbert-v2-base")
# Run inference
sentences = [
"This is a Norwegian boy",
"Dette er en norsk gutt"
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# (2, 768)
# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities)
# tensor([[1.0000, 0.8287],
# [0.8287, 1.0000]])
```
### Direct Usage (Transformers)
Without [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net), you can still use the model. First, you pass in your input through the transformer model, then you have to apply the right pooling-operation on top of the contextualized word embeddings.
<details><summary>Click to see the direct usage in Transformers</summary>
```python
import torch
from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import cosine_similarity
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
#Mean Pooling - Take attention mask into account for correct averaging
def mean_pooling(model_output, attention_mask):
token_embeddings = model_output[0] #First element of model_output contains all token embeddings
input_mask_expanded = attention_mask.unsqueeze(-1).expand(token_embeddings.size()).float()
return torch.sum(token_embeddings * input_mask_expanded, 1) / torch.clamp(input_mask_expanded.sum(1), min=1e-9)
# Sentences we want sentence embeddings for
sentences = ["This is a Norwegian boy", "Dette er en norsk gutt"]
# Load model from HuggingFace Hub
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('NbAiLab/nb-sbert-v2-base')
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('NbAiLab/nb-sbert-v2-base')
# Tokenize sentences
encoded_input = tokenizer(sentences, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt')
# Compute token embeddings
with torch.no_grad():
model_output = model(**encoded_input)
# Perform pooling. In this case, mean pooling.
embeddings = mean_pooling(model_output, encoded_input['attention_mask'])
print(embeddings.shape)
# torch.Size([2, 768])
similarity = cosine_similarity(embeddings[0].reshape(1, -1), embeddings[1].reshape(1, -1))
print(similarity)
# This should give 0.8287 in the example above.

abstract = {In this work, we show the process of building a large-scale training set from digital and digitized collections at a national library. The resulting Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT)-based language model for Norwegian outperforms multilingual BERT (mBERT) models in several token and sequence classification tasks for both Norwegian Bokmål and Norwegian Nynorsk. Our model also improves the mBERT performance for other languages present in the corpus such as English, Swedish, and Danish. For languages not included in the corpus, the weights degrade moderately while keeping strong multilingual properties. Therefore, we show that building high-quality models within a memory institution using somewhat noisy optical character recognition (OCR) content is feasible, and we hope to pave the way for other memory institutions to follow.},
