# BERT large model multitask (cased) for Sentence Embeddings in Russian language.
The model is described [in this article](https://habr.com/ru/company/sberdevices/blog/560748/)  
Russian SuperGLUE [metrics](https://russiansuperglue.com/login/submit_info/944)

For better quality, use mean token embeddings.
## Usage (HuggingFace Models Repository)
You can use the model directly from the model repository to compute sentence embeddings:
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
import torch
#Mean Pooling - Take attention mask into account for correct averaging
def mean_pooling(model_output, attention_mask):
    token_embeddings = model_output[0] #First element of model_output contains all token embeddings
    input_mask_expanded = attention_mask.unsqueeze(-1).expand(token_embeddings.size()).float()
    sum_embeddings = torch.sum(token_embeddings * input_mask_expanded, 1)
    sum_mask = torch.clamp(input_mask_expanded.sum(1), min=1e-9)
    return sum_embeddings / sum_mask
#Sentences we want sentence embeddings for
sentences = ['Привет! Как твои дела?',
             'А правда, что 42 твое любимое число?']
#Load AutoModel from huggingface model repository
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("ai-forever/sbert_large_mt_nlu_ru")
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("ai-forever/sbert_large_mt_nlu_ru")
#Tokenize sentences
encoded_input = tokenizer(sentences, padding=True, truncation=True, max_length=24, return_tensors='pt')
#Compute token embeddings
with torch.no_grad():
    model_output = model(**encoded_input)
#Perform pooling. In this case, mean pooling
sentence_embeddings = mean_pooling(model_output, encoded_input['attention_mask'])
```
