This is a [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) model. It maps questions and paragraphs 768-dimensional dense vectors and can be used for semantic search. The model uses an [XMOD](https://huggingface.co/facebook/xmod-base) backbone, which allows it to learn from monolingual fine-tuning in a high-resource language, like English, and perform zero-shot retrieval across multiple languages. |
|
|
|
## Usage |
|
|
|
Here are some examples for using DPR-XM with [Sentence-Transformers](#using-sentence-transformers), [FlagEmbedding](#using-flagembedding), or [Huggingface Transformers](#using-huggingface-transformers). |
|
|
|
#### Using Sentence-Transformers |
|
|
|
Start by installing the [library](https://www.SBERT.net): `pip install -U sentence-transformers`. Then, you can use the model like this: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer |
|
|
|
queries = ["Ceci est un exemple de requête.", "Voici un second exemple."] |
|
passages = ["Ceci est un exemple de passage.", "Et voilà un deuxième exemple."] |
|
language_code = "fr_FR" #Find all codes here: https://huggingface.co/facebook/xmod-base#languages |
|
|
|
model = SentenceTransformer('antoinelouis/dpr-xm') |
|
model[0].auto_model.set_default_language(language_code) #Activate the language-specific adapters |
|
|
|
q_embeddings = model.encode(queries, normalize_embeddings=True) |
|
p_embeddings = model.encode(passages, normalize_embeddings=True) |
|
|
|
similarity = q_embeddings @ p_embeddings.T |
|
print(similarity) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
#### Using FlagEmbedding |
|
|
|
Start by installing the [library](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/): `pip install -U FlagEmbedding`. Then, you can use the model like this: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from FlagEmbedding import FlagModel |
|
|
|
queries = ["Ceci est un exemple de requête.", "Voici un second exemple."] |
|
passages = ["Ceci est un exemple de passage.", "Et voilà un deuxième exemple."] |
|
language_code = "fr_FR" #Find all codes here: https://huggingface.co/facebook/xmod-base#languages |
|
|
|
model = FlagModel('antoinelouis/dpr-xm') |
|
model.model.set_default_language(language_code) #Activate the language-specific adapters |
|
|
|
q_embeddings = model.encode(queries, normalize_embeddings=True) |
|
p_embeddings = model.encode(passages, normalize_embeddings=True) |
|
|
|
similarity = q_embeddings @ p_embeddings.T |
|
print(similarity) |
|
``` |
|
|
|
#### Using Transformers |
|
|
|
Start by installing the [library](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers): `pip install -U transformers`. Then, you can use the model like this: |
|
|
|
```python |
|
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel |
|
from torch.nn.functional import normalize |
|
|
|
def mean_pooling(model_output, attention_mask): |
|
""" Perform mean pooling on-top of the contextualized word embeddings, while ignoring mask tokens in the mean computation.""" |
|
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() |
|
return torch.sum(token_embeddings * input_mask_expanded, 1) / torch.clamp(input_mask_expanded.sum(1), min=1e-9) |
|
|
|
|
|
queries = ["Ceci est un exemple de requête.", "Voici un second exemple."] |
|
passages = ["Ceci est un exemple de passage.", "Et voilà un deuxième exemple."] |
|
language_code = "fr_FR" #Find all codes here: https://huggingface.co/facebook/xmod-base#languages |
|
|
|
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('antoinelouis/dpr-xm') |
|
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('antoinelouis/dpr-xm') |
|
model.set_default_language(language_code) #Activate the language-specific adapters |
|
|
|
q_input = tokenizer(queries, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt') |
|
p_input = tokenizer(passages, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt') |
|
with torch.no_grad(): |
|
q_output = model(**encoded_queries) |
|
p_output = model(**encoded_passages) |
|
q_embeddings = mean_pooling(q_output, q_input['attention_mask']) |
|
q_embedddings = normalize(q_embeddings, p=2, dim=1) |
|
p_embeddings = mean_pooling(p_output, p_input['attention_mask']) |
|
p_embedddings = normalize(p_embeddings, p=2, dim=1) |
|
|
|
similarity = q_embeddings @ p_embeddings.T |
|
print(similarity) |
|
``` |
|

## Evaluation |
|
|
|
- **mMARCO**: |
|
We evaluate our model on the small development sets of [mMARCO](https://huggingface.co/datasets/unicamp-dl/mmarco), which consists of 6,980 queries for a corpus of 8.8M candidate passages in 14 languages. Below, we compared its multilingual performance with other retrieval models on the dataset official metrics, i.e., mean reciprocal rank at cut-off 10 (MRR@10). |

## Training |
|
|
|
#### Data |
|
|
|
We use the English training samples from the [MS MARCO passage ranking](https://ir-datasets.com/msmarco-passage.html#msmarco-passage/train) dataset, which contains 8.8M passages and 539K training queries. We do not employ the BM25 netaives provided by the official dataset but instead sample harder negatives mined from 12 distinct dense retrievers, using the [msmarco-hard-negatives](https://huggingface.co/datasets/sentence-transformers/msmarco-hard-negatives) distillation dataset. Our final training set consists of 25.6M (q, p+, p-) triples. |
|
|
|
#### Implementation |
|
|
|
The model is initialized from the [xmod-base](https://huggingface.co/facebook/xmod-base) checkpoint and optimized via the in-batch sampled softmax cross-entropy loss (as in [DPR](https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2004.04906)). It is fine-tuned on one 32GB NVIDIA V100 GPU for 200k steps using the AdamW optimizer with a batch size of 128, a peak learning rate of 2e-5 with warm up along the first 10\% of training steps and linear scheduling. We set the maximum sequence lengths for both the questions and passages to 128 tokens. |
