|
| | This model is a cross-encoder based on `google/electra-base-discriminator`. It was trained on Ms-Marco using loss `distillRankNET` as part of a reproducibility paper for training cross encoders: "**[Reproducing and Comparing Distillation Techniques for Cross-Encoders](http://arxiv.org/abs/2603.03010)**", see the paper for more details. |

|
| | ## Model Description |
| |
|
| | This model is intended for **re-ranking** the top results returned by a retrieval system (like BM25, Bi-Encoders or SPLADE). |
| |
|
| | - **Training Data:** MS MARCO Passage |
| | - **Language:** English |
| | - **Loss** distillRankNET |
| |
|
| | Training can be easily reproduced using the assiciated repository. |
| | The exact training configuration used for this model is also detailed in [config.yaml](./config.yaml). |
| |
|
| | ## Usage |
| |
|
| | Quick Start: |
| | ```python |
| | from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification |
| | import torch |
| | |
| | tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/electra-base-discriminator") |
| | model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("xpmir/cross-encoder-ELECTRA-DistillRankNET") |
| | |
| | features = tokenizer("What is experimaestro ?", "Experimaestro is a powerful framework for ML experiments management...", padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors="pt") |
| | |
| | model.eval() |
| | with torch.no_grad(): |
| | scores = model(**features).logits |
| | print(scores) |
| | ``` |
| |
|
| | ## Evaluations |
| |
|
| | We provide evaluations of this cross-encoder re-ranking the top `1000` documents retrieved by `naver/splade-v3-distilbert`. |
