BGE large Legal Spanish

This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from BAAI/bge-m3. It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 1024-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:

pip install -U sentence-transformers

Then you can load this model and run inference.

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("dariolopez/bge-m3-es-legal-tmp-6")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'Artículo 6. Definiciones. 1. Discriminación directa e indirecta. b) La discriminación indirecta se produce cuando una disposición, criterio o práctica aparentemente neutros ocasiona o puede ocasionar a una o varias personas una desventaja particular con respecto a otras por razón de las causas previstas en el apartado 1 del artículo 2.',
    '¿Qué se considera discriminación indirecta?',
    '¿Qué tipo de información se considera veraz?',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 1024]

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