## Detailed comparison & Our Contribution: English language famously have **all-minilm** series models which were great for quick experimentations and for certain production workloads. The Idea is to have same for the other popular langauges, starting with Indo-Aryan and Indo-Dravidian languages. Our innovation is in bringing high quality models which easy to serve and embeddings are cheaper to store without ANY pretraining or expensive finetuning. For instance, **all-minilm** are finetuned on 1-Billion pairs. We offer a very lean model but with a huge vocabulary - around 250K. We will add more details here.

## Usage: #### With Sentence Transformers: ```python from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer import scipy.spatial model = SentenceTransformer('prithivida/miniMiracle_hi_v1') corpus = [ 'एक आदमी खाना खा रहा है।', 'लोग ब्रेड का एक टुकड़ा खा रहे हैं।', 'लड़की एक बच्चे को उठाए हुए है।', 'एक आदमी घोड़े पर सवार है।', 'एक महिला वायलिन बजा रही है।', 'दो आदमी जंगल में गाड़ी धकेल रहे हैं।', 'एक आदमी एक सफेद घोड़े पर एक बंद मैदान में सवारी कर रहा है।', 'एक बंदर ड्रम बजा रहा है।', 'एक चीता अपने शिकार के पीछे दौड़ रहा है।', 'एक बड़ा डिनर है।' ] corpus_embeddings = model.encode(corpus) queries = [ 'एक आदमी पास्ता खा रहा है।', 'एक गोरिल्ला सूट पहने व्यक्ति ड्रम बजा रहा है।' ] query_embeddings = model.encode(queries) # Find the closest 3 sentences of the corpus for each query sentence based on cosine similarity closest_n = 3 for query, query_embedding in zip(queries, query_embeddings): distances = scipy.spatial.distance.cdist([query_embedding], corpus_embeddings, "cosine")[0] results = zip(range(len(distances)), distances) results = sorted(results, key=lambda x: x[1]) print("\n======================\n") print("Query:", query) print("\nTop 3 most similar sentences in corpus:\n") for idx, distance in results[0:closest_n]: print(corpus[idx].strip(), "(Score: %.4f)" % (1-distance)) # Optional: How to quantize the embeddings # binary_embeddings = quantize_embeddings(embeddings, precision="ubinary") ``` #### With Huggingface Transformers: - T.B.A #### How do I optimise vector index cost ?

How do I offer hybrid search to address Vocabulary Mismatch Problem?

MIRACL paper shows simply combining BM25 is a good starting point for a Hybrid option: The below numbers are with mDPR model, but miniMiracle_hi_v1 should give a even better hybrid performance. | Language | ISO | nDCG@10 BM25 | nDCG@10 mDPR | nDCG@10 Hybrid | |-----------|-----|--------------|--------------|----------------| | **Hindi** | **hi** | **0.458** | **0.383** | **0.616** | ## Notes on reproducing: We welcome everyone to reproduce our results. Here are some tips and observations: - Use CLS Pooling and Inner Product. - There *may be* minor differences in the numbers when reproducing, for instance BGE-M3 reports a nDCG@10 of 59.3 for MIRACL hindi and we Observed only 58.9. Here are our numbers for the full hindi run on BGE-M3 ```python {'NDCG@1': 0.49714, 'NDCG@3': 0.5115, 'NDCG@5': 0.53908, 'NDCG@10': 0.58936, 'NDCG@100': 0.6457, 'NDCG@1000': 0.65336} {'MAP@1': 0.28845, 'MAP@3': 0.42424, 'MAP@5': 0.46455, 'MAP@10': 0.49955, 'MAP@100': 0.51886, 'MAP@1000': 0.51933} {'Recall@10': 0.73032, 'Recall@50': 0.8987, 'Recall@100': 0.93974, 'Recall@200': 0.95763, 'Recall@500': 0.97813, 'Recall@1000': 0.9902} {'P@1': 0.49714, 'P@3': 0.33048, 'P@5': 0.24629, 'P@10': 0.15543, 'P@100': 0.0202, 'P@1000': 0.00212} {'MRR@10': 0.60893, 'MRR@100': 0.615, 'MRR@1000': 0.6151} ``` Fair warning BGE-M3 is $ expensive to evaluate, probably that's why it's not part of any of the MTEB benchmarks. # Reference: - [All Cohere numbers are copied form here](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Cohere/miracl-en-queries-22-12) # Note on model bias: - Like any model this model might carry inherent biases from the base models and the datasets it was pretrained and finetuned on.
