MizoEmbed-1

MizoEmbed-1 is the first dense embedding model developed specifically for the Mizo language. This pioneering model provides vector representations of Mizo text, enabling various natural language processing tasks and applications for the underrepresented language.

The model maps sentences & paragraphs to a 768-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more.

Model Details

Model Description

Model Type: Sentence Transformer
Base model: robzchhangte/MizBERT
Embedding Dimension: 768 tokens
Input Context Length: 512
Language: Mizo

Usage

Direct Usage (Sentence Transformers)

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("sarkii/MizoEmbed-1")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'Mizoram a ka zin chu ka hlawkpui hle mai.',
    'Ka zinna ram Mizoram ah Reiek Tlang a awm.',
    'Inkhelh hi ka thiam vaklo mahse ka inkhel lui tho thin.',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 768]

# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities.shape)
# [3, 3]
