How to evaluate on this task
You can evaluate an embedding model on this dataset using the following code:
import mteb
task = mteb.get_task("AudioCapsA2TRetrieval")
evaluator = mteb.MTEB([task])
model = mteb.get_model(YOUR_MODEL)
evaluator.run(model)
To learn more about how to run models on mteb task check out the GitHub repository.
