sentence-camembert-large

Pre-trained sentence embedding models are state-of-the-art of Sentence Embeddings for French.

The Lajavaness/sentence-camembert-large model is an improvement over the dangvantuan/sentence-camembert-base offering greater robustness and better performance on all STS benchmark datasets. It has been fine-tuned using the pre-trained facebook/camembert-large and Siamese BERT-Networks with 'sentences-transformers' on dataset stsb. Additionally, it has been combined with Augmented SBERT on dataset stsb. The model benefits from Pair Sampling Strategies using two models: CrossEncoder-camembert-large and dangvantuan/sentence-camembert-large

Usage

The model can be used directly (without a language model) as follows:

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
model =  SentenceTransformer("Lajavaness/sentence-camembert-large")

sentences = ["Un avion est en train de décoller.",
          "Un homme joue d'une grande flûte.",
          "Un homme étale du fromage râpé sur une pizza.",
          "Une personne jette un chat au plafond.",
          "Une personne est en train de plier un morceau de papier.",
          ]

embeddings = model.encode(sentences)

Evaluation

The model can be evaluated as follows on the French test data of stsb.

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
from sentence_transformers.readers import InputExample
from datasets import load_dataset
def convert_dataset(dataset):
    dataset_samples=[]
    for df in dataset:
        score = float(df['similarity_score'])/5.0  # Normalize score to range 0 ... 1
        inp_example = InputExample(texts=[df['sentence1'],
                                    df['sentence2']], label=score)
        dataset_samples.append(inp_example)
    return dataset_samples

# Loading the dataset for evaluation
df_dev = load_dataset("stsb_multi_mt", name="fr", split="dev")
df_test = load_dataset("stsb_multi_mt", name="fr", split="test")

# Convert the dataset for evaluation

# For Dev set:
dev_samples = convert_dataset(df_dev)
val_evaluator = EmbeddingSimilarityEvaluator.from_input_examples(dev_samples, name='sts-dev')
val_evaluator(model, output_path="./")

# For Test set:
test_samples = convert_dataset(df_test)
test_evaluator = EmbeddingSimilarityEvaluator.from_input_examples(test_samples, name='sts-test')
test_evaluator(model, output_path="./")

Test Result: The performance is measured using Pearson and Spearman correlation:

• On dev

• On test, Pearson and Spearman correlation are evaluated on many different benchmark datasets:
