I just released Sentence Transformers v3.3.0 & it's huge! 4.5x speedup for CPU with OpenVINO int8 static quantization, training with prompts for a free perf. boost, PEFT integration, evaluation on NanoBEIR, and more! Details:

1. We integrate Post-Training Static Quantization using OpenVINO, a very efficient solution for CPUs that processes 4.78x as many texts per second on average, while only hurting performance by 0.36% on average. There's a new export_static_quantized_openvino_model method to quantize a model.

2. We add the option to train with prompts, e.g. strings like "query: ", "search_document: " or "Represent this sentence for searching relevant passages: ". It's as simple as using the prompts argument in SentenceTransformerTrainingArguments. Our experiments show that you can easily reach 0.66% to 0.90% relative performance improvement on NDCG@10 at no extra cost by adding "query: " before each training query and "document: " before each training answer.

3. Sentence Transformers now supports training PEFT adapters via 7 new methods for adding new adapters or loading pre-trained ones. You can also directly load a trained adapter with SentenceTransformer as if it's a normal model. Very useful for e.g. 1) training multiple adapters on 1 base model, 2) training bigger models than otherwise possible, or 3) cheaply hosting multiple models by switching multiple adapters on 1 base model.

4. We added easy evaluation on NanoBEIR, a subset of BEIR a.k.a. the MTEB Retrieval benchmark. It contains 13 datasets with 50 queries and up to 10k documents each. Evaluation is fast, and can easily be done during training to track your model's performance on general-purpose information retrieval tasks.

Additionally, we also deprecate Python 3.8, add better compatibility with Transformers v4.46.0, and more. Read the full release notes here: https://github.com/UKPLab/sentence-transformers/releases/tag/v3.3.0

Good folks at @nvidia have released exciting new research on normalized Transformers (nGPT) for faster and more efficient language modeling!

Here is what they are proposing:

1. Remove all normalization layers, like RMSNorm or LayerNorm, from the standard Transformer architecture.

2. Normalize all matrices along their embedding dimension after each training step. This includes input and output embeddings, attention matrices (Q, K, V), output projection matrices, and MLP matrices.

3. Replace the standard residual connections with normalized update equations using learnable eigen learning rates for the attention and MLP blocks.

4. Change the softmax scaling factor in the attention mechanism from 1/sqrt of d_k to sqrt of d_k.

5. Implement rescaling and optional normalization of query (q) and key (k) vectors in the attention mechanism using learnable scaling factors.

6. Rescale the intermediate states of the MLP block using learnable scaling factors.

7. Implement rescaling of the output logits using learnable scaling factors.

8. Remove weight decay and learning rate warmup from the optimization process.

9. Initialize the eigen learning rates and scaling factors with appropriate values as specified in the paper.

10. During training, treat all vectors and matrices as residing on a unit hypersphere, interpreting matrix-vector multiplications as cosine similarities.

11. Implement the update equations for the hidden states using the normalized outputs from attention and MLP blocks, controlled by the eigen learning rates.

12. After each forward pass, normalize all parameter matrices to ensure they remain on the unit hypersphere.

13. Use the Adam optimizer without weight decay for training the model.

14. When computing loss, apply the learnable scaling factor to the logits before the softmax operation.

15. During inference, follow the same normalization and scaling procedures as in training.

Excited to see how it scales to larger models and datasets!

๐Ÿ“ฃ Sentence Transformers v3.2.0 is out, marking the biggest release for inference in 2 years! 2 new backends for embedding models: ONNX (+ optimization & quantization) and OpenVINO, allowing for speedups up to 2x-3x AND Static Embeddings for 500x speedups at 10-20% accuracy cost.

1๏ธโƒฃ ONNX Backend: This backend uses the ONNX Runtime to accelerate model inference on both CPU and GPU, reaching up to 1.4x-3x speedup depending on the precision. We also introduce 2 helper methods for optimizing and quantizing models for (much) faster inference.
2๏ธโƒฃ OpenVINO Backend: This backend uses Intel their OpenVINO instead, outperforming ONNX in some situations on CPU.

Usage is as simple as SentenceTransformer("all-MiniLM-L6-v2", backend="onnx"). Does your model not have an ONNX or OpenVINO file yet? No worries - it'll be autoexported for you. Thank me later ๐Ÿ˜‰

๐Ÿ”’ Another major new feature is Static Embeddings: think word embeddings like GLoVe and word2vec, but modernized. Static Embeddings are bags of token embeddings that are summed together to create text embeddings, allowing for lightning-fast embeddings that don't require any neural networks. They're initialized in one of 2 ways:

1๏ธโƒฃ via Model2Vec, a new technique for distilling any Sentence Transformer models into static embeddings. Either via a pre-distilled model with from_model2vec or with from_distillation where you do the distillation yourself. It'll only take 5 seconds on GPU & 2 minutes on CPU, no dataset needed.
2๏ธโƒฃ Random initialization. This requires finetuning, but finetuning is extremely quick (e.g. I trained with 3 million pairs in 7 minutes). My final model was 6.6% worse than bge-base-en-v1.5, but 500x faster on CPU.

Researchers from Mila and Borealis AI just have shown that simplified versions of good old Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) can match the performance of today's transformers.

They took a fresh look at LSTMs (from 1997!) and GRUs (from 2014). They stripped these models down to their bare essentials, creating "minLSTM" and "minGRU". The key changes:
โถ Removed dependencies on previous hidden states in the gates
โท Dropped the tanh that had been added to restrict output range in order to avoid vanishing gradients
โธ Ensured outputs are time-independent in scale (not sure I understood that well either, don't worry)

โšก๏ธ As a result, you can use a โ€œparallel scanโ€ algorithm to train these new, minimal RNNs, in parallel, taking 88% more memory but also making them 200x faster than their traditional counterparts for long sequences

๐Ÿ”ฅ The results are mind-blowing! Performance-wise, they go toe-to-toe with Transformers or Mamba.

And for Language Modeling, they need 2.5x fewer training steps than Transformers to reach the same performance! ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿค” Why does this matter?

By showing there are simpler models with similar performance to transformers, this challenges the narrative that we need advanced architectures for better performance!

๐Ÿ’ฌย Franรงois Chollet wrote in a tweet about this paper:

โ€œThe fact that there are many recent architectures coming from different directions that roughly match Transformers is proof that architectures aren't fundamentally important in the curve-fitting paradigm (aka deep learning)โ€

โ€œCurve-fitting is about embedding a dataset on a curve. The critical factor is the dataset, not the specific hard-coded bells and whistles that constrain the curve's shape.โ€

Itโ€™s the Bitter lesson by Rich Sutton striking again: donโ€™t need fancy thinking architectures, just scale up your model and data!

๐Ÿ‘‹ Hi Gradio community,

I'm excited to share that Gradio 5 will launch in October with improvements across security, performance, SEO, design (see the screenshot for Gradio 4 vs. Gradio 5), and user experience, making Gradio a mature framework for web-based ML applications.

Gradio 5 is currently in beta, so if you'd like to try it out early, please refer to the instructions below:

---------- Installation -------------

Gradio 5 depends on Python 3.10 or higher, so if you are running Gradio locally, please ensure that you have Python 3.10 or higher, or download it here: https://www.python.org/downloads/

* Locally: If you are running gradio locally, simply install the release candidate with pip install gradio --pre
* Spaces: If you would like to update an existing gradio Space to use Gradio 5, you can simply update the sdk_version to be 5.0.0b3 in the README.md file on Spaces.

In most cases, thatโ€™s all you have to do to run Gradio 5.0. If you start your Gradio application, you should see your Gradio app running, with a fresh new UI.

-----------------------------
