# BGE-M3 ([paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2402.03216.pdf), [code](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/FlagEmbedding/BGE_M3))

This repo contains the original `BAAI/bge-m3` distilled to a Static Embedding module using [Model2Vec](https://github.com/MinishLab/model2vec/) and exported with SentenceTransformer.

## SentenceTransformer

This is a [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) model trained. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 256-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more.

## Usage

### Direct Usage (Sentence Transformers)

First install the Sentence Transformers library:

```bash
pip install -U sentence-transformers
```

Then you can load this model and run inference.
```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("juampahc/bge-m3-m2v")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'The weather is lovely today.',
    "It's so sunny outside!",
    'He drove to the stadium.',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 256]

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