# Cross-Encoder

This model was trained using [SentenceTransformers](https://sbert.net) [Cross-Encoder](https://www.sbert.net/examples/applications/cross-encoder/README.html) class.

## Training Data
This model was trained on [stsb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/stsb_multi_mt/viewer/it/train). The model will predict a score between 0 and 1 how for the semantic similarity of two sentences. 


## Usage and Performance

```python
from sentence_transformers import CrossEncoder
model = CrossEncoder('efederici/cross-encoder-umberto-stsb')
scores = model.predict([('Sentence 1', 'Sentence 2'), ('Sentence 3', 'Sentence 4')])
```

The model will predict scores for the pairs `('Sentence 1', 'Sentence 2')` and `('Sentence 3', 'Sentence 4')`.
