stjiris/bert-large-portuguese-cased-legal-mlm-gpl-nli-sts-v0 (Legal BERTimbau)

This is a sentence-transformers model: It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 1024 dimensional dense vector space and can be used for tasks like clustering or semantic search. stjiris/bert-large-portuguese-cased-legal-mlm-gpl-nli-sts-v0 derives from stjiris/bert-large-portuguese-cased-legal-mlm (legal variant of BERTimbau large).

It was trained using the MLM technique with a learning rate 1e-5 Legal Sentences from +-30000 documents 15000 training steps (best performance for our semantic search system implementation)

It was presented to Generative Pseudo Labeling training.

The model was presented to NLI data. 16 batch size, 2e-5 lr

It was trained for Semantic Textual Similarity, being submitted to a fine tuning stage with the assin, assin2, stsb_multi_mt pt datasets. 'lr': 1e-5

This model was subjected to Metadata Knowledge Distillation. Repository Trial Technique to improve information retrieval through dense vectors: Metadata Knowledge Distillation

Usage (Sentence-Transformers)

Using this model becomes easy when you have sentence-transformers installed:

pip install -U sentence-transformers

Then you can use the model like this:

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
sentences = ["Isto é um exemplo", "Isto é um outro exemplo"]

model = SentenceTransformer('stjiris/bert-large-portuguese-cased-legal-mlm-gpl-nli-sts-v0')
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings)

Usage (HuggingFace Transformers)

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('stjiris/bert-large-portuguese-cased-legal-mlm-gpl-nli-sts-v0')
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('stjiris/bert-large-portuguese-cased-legal-mlm-gpl-nli-sts-v0')

# 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)
