 # CrisisTransformers
-CrisisTransformers is a family of pre-trained language models and sentence encoders introduced in the paper "[CrisisTransformers: Pre-trained language models and sentence encoders for crisis-related social media texts](https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.05494)". The models were trained based on the RoBERTa pre-training procedure on a massive corpus of over 15 billion word tokens sourced from tweets associated with 30+ crisis events such as disease outbreaks, natural disasters, conflicts, etc. Please refer to the associated paper for more details.

-CrisisTransformers were evaluated on 18 public crisis-specific datasets against strong baselines such as BERT, RoBERTa, BERTweet, etc. Our pre-trained models outperform the baselines across all 18 datasets in classification tasks, and our best-performing sentence-encoder outperforms the state-of-the-art by more than 17\% in sentence encoding tasks.
+CrisisTransformers were evaluated on 18 public crisis-specific datasets against strong baselines. Our pre-trained models outperform the baselines across all 18 datasets in classification tasks, and our best-performing sentence-encoder (mono-lingual) outperforms the state-of-the-art by more than 17\% in sentence encoding tasks. The multi-lingual sentence encoders (support 50+ languages; see [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.16614)) are designed to approximate the embedding space of the best-performing mono-lingual sentence encoder.
 
 ## Uses
-CrisisTransformers has 8 pre-trained models and a sentence encoder. The pre-trained models should be finetuned for downstream tasks just like [BERT](https://huggingface.co/bert-base-cased) and [RoBERTa](https://huggingface.co/roberta-base). The sentence encoder can be used out-of-the-box just like [Sentence-Transformers](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/all-mpnet-base-v2) for sentence encoding to facilitate tasks such as semantic search, clustering, topic modelling.

 ## Models and naming conventions
-*CT-M1* models were trained from scratch up to 40 epochs, while *CT-M2* models were initialized with pre-trained RoBERTa's weights and *CT-M3* models were initialized with pre-trained BERTweet's weights and both trained for up to 20 epochs. *OneLook* represents the checkpoint after 1 epoch, *BestLoss* represents the checkpoint with the lowest loss during training, and *Complete* represents the checkpoint after completing all epochs. SE represents sentence encoder.
