### mirror-bert-base-uncased-sentence-drophead
An unsupervised sentence encoder proposed by [Liu et al. (2021)](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2104.08027.pdf), using [drophead](https://aclanthology.org/2020.findings-emnlp.178.pdf) instead of dropout as feature space augmentation. Trained with unlabelled raw sentences, using [bert-base-uncased](https://huggingface.co/bert-base-uncased) as the base model. Please use mean-pooling over *all tokens* as the representation of the input.
