How to use nextdaySunshine/qwen3-embedding-0.6b with sentence-transformers:
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
model = SentenceTransformer("nextdaySunshine/qwen3-embedding-0.6b")
sentences = [
"He's a bull in a china shop",
"bull in a china shop: a person who breaks things or who often makes mistakes or causes damage in situations that require careful thinking or behavior",
"cloud nine: very happy/excited",
"on the other hand: from a different point of view"
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities.shape)
# [4, 4]This is a sentence-transformers model trained. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 1024-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more.
SentenceTransformer(
(0): Transformer({'max_seq_length': 32768, 'do_lower_case': False}) with Transformer model: Qwen3Model
(1): Pooling({'word_embedding_dimension': 1024, 'pooling_mode_cls_token': False, 'pooling_mode_mean_tokens': False, 'pooling_mode_max_tokens': False, 'pooling_mode_mean_sqrt_len_tokens': False, 'pooling_mode_weightedmean_tokens': False, 'pooling_mode_lasttoken': True, 'include_prompt': True})
(2): Normalize()
)
First install the Sentence Transformers library:
pip install -U sentence-transformers
Then you can load this model and run inference.
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("sentence_transformers_model_id")
# Run inference
sentences = [
'w/ a warm-hearted smile',
'warm-hearted: to be kind and loving',
'next of kin: your closest living relative or relatives',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 1024]
# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities.shape)
# [3, 3]
