cross-encoder-ettin-68m-DistillRankNET
This model is a cross-encoder based on jhu-clsp/ettin-encoder-68m. 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", 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.
Usage
Quick Start:
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForSequenceClassification
import torch
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("jhu-clsp/ettin-encoder-68m")
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("xpmir/cross-encoder-ettin-68m-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
