# kornwtp/ConGen-BERT-base

This is a [ConGen](https://github.com/KornWtp/ConGen) model: It maps sentences to a 768 dimensional dense vector space and can be used for tasks like semantic search.



## Usage

Using this model becomes easy when you have [ConGen](https://github.com/KornWtp/ConGen) installed:

```
pip install -U git+https://github.com/KornWtp/ConGen.git
```

Then you can use the model like this:

```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
sentences = ["This is an example sentence", "Each sentence is converted"]

model = SentenceTransformer('kornwtp/ConGen-BERT-base')
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings)
```



## Evaluation Results



For an automated evaluation of this model, see the *Sentence Embeddings Benchmark*: [Semantic Textual Similarity](https://github.com/KornWtp/ConGen#main-results---sts)
