# MizoEmbed

MizoEmbed is the first embedding model developed specifically for the Mizo language. This pioneering model provides vector representations of Mizo text, enabling various natural language processing tasks and applications for the underrepresented language.

The model maps sentences & paragraphs to a 768-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more.

## Model Details

### Model Description

- **Language:** Mizo



## 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("Lms18/mizo_embed")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'Alassio hian he tuipui kama resort lian pathumte chu a ti zo a, thlasik khaw vawt tak avanga a huante enkawl chu a chhuang hle.',
    'Alassio-a thlasik lum chuan a huan mawi tak takte chu a siam a ni.',
    'Snowboarder pakhat chu snowboarding a ni.',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 768]

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