## News
|
103 |
+
- 3/18/2024: Release new [rerankers](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/FlagEmbedding/llm_reranker), built upon powerful M3 and LLM (GEMMA and MiniCPM, not so large actually) backbones, supporitng multi-lingual processing and larger inputs, massive improvements of ranking performances on BEIR, C-MTEB/Retrieval, MIRACL, LlamaIndex Evaluation.
|
104 |
+
- 3/18/2024: Release [Visualized-BGE](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/FlagEmbedding/visual), equipping BGE with visual capabilities. Visualized-BGE can be utilized to generate embeddings for hybrid image-text data.
|
105 |
+
- 1/30/2024: Release **BGE-M3**, a new member to BGE model series! M3 stands for **M**ulti-linguality (100+ languages), **M**ulti-granularities (input length up to 8192), **M**ulti-Functionality (unification of dense, lexical, multi-vec/colbert retrieval).
|
106 |
+
It is the first embedding model which supports all three retrieval methods, achieving new SOTA on multi-lingual (MIRACL) and cross-lingual (MKQA) benchmarks.

|
108 |
+
- 1/9/2024: Release [Activation-Beacon](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/Long_LLM/activation_beacon), an effective, efficient, compatible, and low-cost (training) method to extend the context length of LLM. [Technical Report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.03462) :fire:
|
109 |
+
- 12/24/2023: Release **LLaRA**, a LLaMA-7B based dense retriever, leading to state-of-the-art performances on MS MARCO and BEIR. Model and code will be open-sourced. Please stay tuned. [Technical Report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.15503)
|
110 |
+
- 11/23/2023: Release [LM-Cocktail](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/LM_Cocktail), a method to maintain general capabilities during fine-tuning by merging multiple language models. [Technical Report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.13534) :fire:

|
114 |
+
- 09/12/2023: New models:
|
115 |
+
- **New reranker model**: release cross-encoder models `BAAI/bge-reranker-base` and `BAAI/bge-reranker-large`, which are more powerful than embedding model. We recommend to use/fine-tune them to re-rank top-k documents returned by embedding models.
|
116 |
+
- **update embedding model**: release `bge-*-v1.5` embedding model to alleviate the issue of the similarity distribution, and enhance its retrieval ability without instruction.

[1\]: If you need to search the relevant passages to a query, we suggest to add the instruction to the query; in other cases, no instruction is needed, just use the original query directly. In all cases, **no instruction** needs to be added to passages.
|
157 |
+
|
158 |
+
[2\]: Different from embedding model, reranker uses question and document as input and directly output similarity instead of embedding. To balance the accuracy and time cost, cross-encoder is widely used to re-rank top-k documents retrieved by other simple models.
|
159 |
+
For examples, use bge embedding model to retrieve top 100 relevant documents, and then use bge reranker to re-rank the top 100 document to get the final top-3 results.

<summary>1. How to fine-tune bge embedding model?</summary>
|
169 |
+
|
170 |
+
<!-- ### How to fine-tune bge embedding model? -->
|
171 |
+
Following this [example](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/examples/finetune) to prepare data and fine-tune your model.
|
172 |
+
Some suggestions:
|
173 |
+
- Mine hard negatives following this [example](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/examples/finetune#hard-negatives), which can improve the retrieval performance.
|
174 |
+
- If you pre-train bge on your data, the pre-trained model cannot be directly used to calculate similarity, and it must be fine-tuned with contrastive learning before computing similarity.
|
175 |
+
- If the accuracy of the fine-tuned model is still not high, it is recommended to use/fine-tune the cross-encoder model (bge-reranker) to re-rank top-k results.
|
176 |
+
Hard negatives also are needed to fine-tune reranker. Refer to this [example](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/examples/reranker) for the fine-tuning for reranker

<summary>2. The similarity score between two dissimilar sentences is higher than 0.5</summary>
|
183 |
+
|
184 |
+
<!-- ### The similarity score between two dissimilar sentences is higher than 0.5 -->
|
185 |
+
**Suggest to use bge v1.5, which alleviates the issue of the similarity distribution.**
|
186 |
+
|
187 |
+
Since we finetune the models by contrastive learning with a temperature of 0.01,
|
188 |
+
the similarity distribution of the current BGE model is about in the interval \[0.6, 1\].
|
189 |
+
So a similarity score greater than 0.5 does not indicate that the two sentences are similar.
|
190 |
+
|
191 |
+
For downstream tasks, such as passage retrieval or semantic similarity,
|
192 |
+
**what matters is the relative order of the scores, not the absolute value.**
|
193 |
+
If you need to filter similar sentences based on a similarity threshold,
|
194 |
+
please select an appropriate similarity threshold based on the similarity distribution on your data (such as 0.8, 0.85, or even 0.9).

<summary>3. When does the query instruction need to be used</summary>
|
200 |
+
|
201 |
+
<!-- ### When does the query instruction need to be used -->
|
202 |
+
|
203 |
+
For the `bge-*-v1.5`, we improve its retrieval ability when not using instruction.
|
204 |
+
No instruction only has a slight degradation in retrieval performance compared with using instruction.
|
205 |
+
So you can generate embedding without instruction in all cases for convenience.
|
206 |
+
|
207 |
+
For a retrieval task that uses short queries to find long related documents,
|
208 |
+
it is recommended to add instructions for these short queries.
|
209 |
+
**The best method to decide whether to add instructions for queries is choosing the setting that achieves better performance on your task.**
|
210 |
+
In all cases, the documents/passages do not need to add the instruction.

## Usage
|
216 |
+
|
217 |
+
### Usage for Embedding Model
|
218 |
+
|
219 |
+
Here are some examples for using `bge` models with
|
220 |
+
[FlagEmbedding](#using-flagembedding), [Sentence-Transformers](#using-sentence-transformers), [Langchain](#using-langchain), or [Huggingface Transformers](#using-huggingface-transformers).
|
221 |
+
|
222 |
+
#### Using FlagEmbedding
|
223 |
+
```
|
224 |
+
pip install -U FlagEmbedding
|
225 |
+
```
|
226 |
+
If it doesn't work for you, you can see [FlagEmbedding](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/blob/master/FlagEmbedding/baai_general_embedding/README.md) for more methods to install FlagEmbedding.
|
227 |
+
|
228 |
+
```python
|
229 |
+
from FlagEmbedding import FlagModel
|
230 |
+
sentences_1 = ["样例数据-1", "样例数据-2"]
|
231 |
+
sentences_2 = ["样例数据-3", "样例数据-4"]
|
232 |
+
model = FlagModel('BAAI/bge-large-zh-v1.5',
|
233 |
+
query_instruction_for_retrieval="为这个句子生成表示以用于检索相关文章:",
|
234 |
+
use_fp16=True) # Setting use_fp16 to True speeds up computation with a slight performance degradation
|
235 |
+
embeddings_1 = model.encode(sentences_1)
|
236 |
+
embeddings_2 = model.encode(sentences_2)
|
237 |
+
similarity = embeddings_1 @ embeddings_2.T
|
238 |
+
print(similarity)
|
239 |
+
|
240 |
+
# for s2p(short query to long passage) retrieval task, suggest to use encode_queries() which will automatically add the instruction to each query
|
241 |
+
# corpus in retrieval task can still use encode() or encode_corpus(), since they don't need instruction
|
242 |
+
queries = ['query_1', 'query_2']
|
243 |
+
passages = ["样例文档-1", "样例文档-2"]
|
244 |
+
q_embeddings = model.encode_queries(queries)
|
245 |
+
p_embeddings = model.encode(passages)
|
246 |
+
scores = q_embeddings @ p_embeddings.T
|
247 |
+
```
|
248 |
+
For the value of the argument `query_instruction_for_retrieval`, see [Model List](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master#model-list).
|
249 |
+
|
250 |
+
By default, FlagModel will use all available GPUs when encoding. Please set `os.environ["CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES"]` to select specific GPUs.
|
251 |
+
You also can set `os.environ["CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES"]=""` to make all GPUs unavailable.
|
252 |
+
|
253 |
+
|
254 |
+
#### Using Sentence-Transformers
|
255 |
+
|
256 |
+
You can also use the `bge` models with [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net):
|
257 |
+
|
258 |
+
```
|
259 |
+
pip install -U sentence-transformers
|
260 |
+
```
|
261 |
+
```python
|
262 |
+
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
|
263 |
+
sentences_1 = ["样例数据-1", "样例数据-2"]
|
264 |
+
sentences_2 = ["样例数据-3", "样例数据-4"]
|
265 |
+
model = SentenceTransformer('BAAI/bge-large-zh-v1.5')
|
266 |
+
embeddings_1 = model.encode(sentences_1, normalize_embeddings=True)
|
267 |
+
embeddings_2 = model.encode(sentences_2, normalize_embeddings=True)
|
268 |
+
similarity = embeddings_1 @ embeddings_2.T
|
269 |
+
print(similarity)
|
270 |
+
```
|
271 |
+
For s2p(short query to long passage) retrieval task,
|
272 |
+
each short query should start with an instruction (instructions see [Model List](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master#model-list)).
|
273 |
+
But the instruction is not needed for passages.
|
274 |
+
```python
|
275 |
+
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
|
276 |
+
queries = ['query_1', 'query_2']
|
277 |
+
passages = ["样例文档-1", "样例文档-2"]
|
278 |
+
instruction = "为这个句子生成表示以用于检索相关文章:"
|
279 |
+
|
280 |
+
model = SentenceTransformer('BAAI/bge-large-zh-v1.5')
|
281 |
+
q_embeddings = model.encode([instruction+q for q in queries], normalize_embeddings=True)
|
282 |
+
p_embeddings = model.encode(passages, normalize_embeddings=True)
|
283 |
+
scores = q_embeddings @ p_embeddings.T
|
284 |
+
```
|
285 |
+
|
286 |
+
#### Using Langchain
|
287 |
+
|
288 |
+
You can use `bge` in langchain like this:
|
289 |
+
```python
|
290 |
+
from langchain.embeddings import HuggingFaceBgeEmbeddings
|
291 |
+
model_name = "BAAI/bge-large-en-v1.5"
|
292 |
+
model_kwargs = {'device': 'cuda'}
|
293 |
+
encode_kwargs = {'normalize_embeddings': True} # set True to compute cosine similarity
|
294 |
+
model = HuggingFaceBgeEmbeddings(
|
295 |
+
model_name=model_name,
|
296 |
+
model_kwargs=model_kwargs,
|
297 |
+
encode_kwargs=encode_kwargs,
|
298 |
+
query_instruction="为这个句子生成表示以用于检索相关文章:"
|
299 |
+
)
|
300 |
+
model.query_instruction = "为这个句子生成表示以用于检索相关文章:"
|
301 |
+
```
|
302 |
+
|
303 |
+
|
304 |
+
#### Using HuggingFace Transformers
|
305 |
+
|
306 |
+
With the transformers package, you can use the model like this: First, you pass your input through the transformer model, then you select the last hidden state of the first token (i.e., [CLS]) as the sentence embedding.
|
307 |
+
|
308 |
+
```python
|
309 |
+
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
|
310 |
+
import torch
|
311 |
+
# Sentences we want sentence embeddings for
|
312 |
+
sentences = ["样例数据-1", "样例数据-2"]
|
313 |
+
|
314 |
+
# Load model from HuggingFace Hub
|
315 |
+
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('BAAI/bge-large-zh-v1.5')
|
316 |
+
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained('BAAI/bge-large-zh-v1.5')
|
317 |
+
model.eval()
|
318 |
+
|
319 |
+
# Tokenize sentences
|
320 |
+
encoded_input = tokenizer(sentences, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt')
|
321 |
+
# for s2p(short query to long passage) retrieval task, add an instruction to query (not add instruction for passages)
|
322 |
+
# encoded_input = tokenizer([instruction + q for q in queries], padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt')
|
323 |
+
|
324 |
+
# Compute token embeddings
|
325 |
+
with torch.no_grad():
|
326 |
+
model_output = model(**encoded_input)
|
327 |
+
# Perform pooling. In this case, cls pooling.
|
328 |
+
sentence_embeddings = model_output[0][:, 0]
|
329 |
+
# normalize embeddings
|
330 |
+
sentence_embeddings = torch.nn.functional.normalize(sentence_embeddings, p=2, dim=1)
|
331 |
+
print("Sentence embeddings:", sentence_embeddings)
|
332 |
+
```
|
333 |
+
|
334 |
+
### Usage for Reranker
|
335 |
+
|
336 |
+
Different from embedding model, reranker uses question and document as input and directly output similarity instead of embedding.
|
337 |
+
You can get a relevance score by inputting query and passage to the reranker.
|
338 |
+
The reranker is optimized based cross-entropy loss, so the relevance score is not bounded to a specific range.
|
339 |
+
|
340 |
+
|
341 |
+
#### Using FlagEmbedding
|
342 |
+
```
|
343 |
+
pip install -U FlagEmbedding
|
344 |
+
```
|
345 |
+
|
346 |
+
Get relevance scores (higher scores indicate more relevance):
|
347 |
+
```python
|
348 |
+
from FlagEmbedding import FlagReranker
|
349 |
+
reranker = FlagReranker('BAAI/bge-reranker-large', use_fp16=True) # Setting use_fp16 to True speeds up computation with a slight performance degradation
|
350 |
+
|
351 |
+
score = reranker.compute_score(['query', 'passage'])
|
352 |
+
print(score)
|
353 |
+
|
354 |
+
scores = reranker.compute_score([['what is panda?', 'hi'], ['what is panda?', 'The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), sometimes called a panda bear or simply panda, is a bear species endemic to China.']])
|
355 |
+
print(scores)
|
356 |
+
```
|
357 |
+
|
358 |
+
|
359 |
+
#### Using Huggingface transformers
|
360 |
+
|
361 |
+
```python
|
362 |
+
import torch
|
363 |
+
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer
|
364 |
+
|
365 |
+
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('BAAI/bge-reranker-large')
|
366 |
+
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('BAAI/bge-reranker-large')
|
367 |
+
model.eval()
|
368 |
+
|
369 |
+
pairs = [['what is panda?', 'hi'], ['what is panda?', 'The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), sometimes called a panda bear or simply panda, is a bear species endemic to China.']]
|
370 |
+
with torch.no_grad():
|
371 |
+
inputs = tokenizer(pairs, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt', max_length=512)
|
372 |
+
scores = model(**inputs, return_dict=True).logits.view(-1, ).float()
|
373 |
+
print(scores)
|
374 |
+
```
|
375 |
+
|
376 |
+
#### Usage reranker with the ONNX files
|
377 |
+
|
378 |
+
```python
|
379 |
+
from optimum.onnxruntime import ORTModelForSequenceClassification # type: ignore
|
380 |
+
|
381 |
+
import torch

|
385 |
+
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('BAAI/bge-reranker-base')
|
386 |
+
model_ort = ORTModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('BAAI/bge-reranker-base', file_name="onnx/model.onnx")
|
387 |
+
|
388 |
+
# Sentences we want sentence embeddings for
|
389 |
+
pairs = [['what is panda?', 'hi'], ['what is panda?', 'The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), sometimes called a panda bear or simply panda, is a bear species endemic to China.']]
|
390 |
+
|
391 |
+
# Tokenize sentences
|
392 |
+
encoded_input = tokenizer(pairs, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt')
|
393 |

## Train
|
494 |
+
|
495 |
+
### BAAI Embedding
|
496 |
+
|
497 |
+
We pre-train the models using [retromae](https://github.com/staoxiao/RetroMAE) and train them on large-scale pairs data using contrastive learning.
|
498 |
+
**You can fine-tune the embedding model on your data following our [examples](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/examples/finetune).**
|
499 |
+
We also provide a [pre-train example](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/examples/pretrain).
|
500 |
+
Note that the goal of pre-training is to reconstruct the text, and the pre-trained model cannot be used for similarity calculation directly, it needs to be fine-tuned.
|
501 |
+
More training details for bge see [baai_general_embedding](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/blob/master/FlagEmbedding/baai_general_embedding/README.md).
|
502 |

|
504 |
+
|
505 |
+
### BGE Reranker
|
506 |
+
|
507 |
+
Cross-encoder will perform full-attention over the input pair,
|
508 |
+
which is more accurate than embedding model (i.e., bi-encoder) but more time-consuming than embedding model.
|
509 |
+
Therefore, it can be used to re-rank the top-k documents returned by embedding model.
|
510 |
+
We train the cross-encoder on a multilingual pair data,
|
511 |
+
The data format is the same as embedding model, so you can fine-tune it easily following our [example](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/examples/reranker).
|
512 |
+
