# rufimelo/Legal-BERTimbau-sts-large-ma
This is a [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) model: It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 1024 dimensional dense vector space and can be used for tasks like clustering or semantic search.
rufimelo/Legal-BERTimbau-sts-large-ma is based on Legal-BERTimbau-large which derives from [BERTimbau](https://huggingface.co/neuralmind/bert-large-portuguese-cased) large.
It is adapted to the Portuguese legal domain and trained for STS on portuguese datasets.
## Usage (Sentence-Transformers)
Using this model becomes easy when you have [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) installed:
```
pip install -U sentence-transformers
```
Then you can use the model like this:
```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
sentences = ["Isto é um exemplo", "Isto é um outro exemplo"]
model = SentenceTransformer('rufimelo/Legal-BERTimbau-sts-large-ma')
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings)
```
## Usage (HuggingFace Transformers)
```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
import torch
#Mean Pooling - Take attention mask into account for correct averaging
def mean_pooling(model_output, attention_mask):
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)
# Sentences we want sentence embeddings for
sentences = ['This is an example sentence', 'Each sentence is converted']
# Load model from HuggingFace Hub
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('rufimelo/Legal-BERTimbau-sts-large-ma')
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('rufimelo/Legal-BERTimbau-sts-large-ma')
# Tokenize sentences
encoded_input = tokenizer(sentences, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt')
# Compute token embeddings
with torch.no_grad():
model_output = model(**encoded_input)
# Perform pooling. In this case, mean pooling.
sentence_embeddings = mean_pooling(model_output, encoded_input['attention_mask'])
print("Sentence embeddings:")
print(sentence_embeddings)
```

## Training
rufimelo/Legal-BERTimbau-sts-large-ma is based on Legal-BERTimbau-large which derives from [BERTimbau](https://huggingface.co/neuralmind/bert-large-portuguese-cased) large.
Firstly, due to the lack of portuguese datasets, it was trained using multilingual knowledge distillation. For the Multilingual Knowledge Distillation process, the teacher model was 'sentence-transformers/stsb-roberta-large', the supposed supported language as English and the language to learn was portuguese.
It was trained for Semantic Textual Similarity, being submitted to a fine tuning stage with the [assin](https://huggingface.co/datasets/assin), [assin2](https://huggingface.co/datasets/assin2) and [stsb_multi_mt pt](https://huggingface.co/datasets/stsb_multi_mt) datasets. (batch 32, 10 epochs)
