# ModernBERT-base trained on GooAQ
This is a [Cross Encoder](https://www.sbert.net/docs/cross_encoder/usage/usage.html) model finetuned from [answerdotai/ModernBERT-base](https://huggingface.co/answerdotai/ModernBERT-base) using the [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) library. It computes scores for pairs of texts, which can be used for text reranking and semantic search.
## Model Details
### Model Description
- **Model Type:** Cross Encoder
- **Base model:** [answerdotai/ModernBERT-base](https://huggingface.co/answerdotai/ModernBERT-base)
- **Maximum Sequence Length:** 8192 tokens
- **Number of Output Labels:** 1 label
- **Language:** en
- **License:** apache-2.0
### Model Sources
- **Documentation:** [Sentence Transformers Documentation](https://sbert.net)
- **Documentation:** [Cross Encoder Documentation](https://www.sbert.net/docs/cross_encoder/usage/usage.html)
- **Repository:** [Sentence Transformers on GitHub](https://github.com/UKPLab/sentence-transformers)
- **Hugging Face:** [Cross Encoders on Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/models?library=sentence-transformers&other=cross-encoder)
## 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 CrossEncoder
# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = CrossEncoder("ayushexel/ce-modernbert-trained-1epoch")
# Get scores for pairs of texts
pairs = [
['can you still get pregnant if you are infertile?', 'Many infertile couples will go on to conceive a child without treatment. After trying to get pregnant for two years, about 95 percent of couples successfully conceive.'],
['can you still get pregnant if you are infertile?', 'Secondary infertility is the inability to become pregnant or to carry a baby to term after previously giving birth to a baby. Secondary infertility shares many of the same causes of primary infertility. Secondary infertility might be caused by: Impaired sperm production, function or delivery in men.'],
['can you still get pregnant if you are infertile?', "Problems with cervical mucus can interfere with getting pregnant. Mild cases may increase the time it takes to get pregnant, but won't necessarily cause infertility."],
['can you still get pregnant if you are infertile?', 'No treatment can stop the process of diminished ovarian reserve, but women who are infertile due to low egg count or quality can sometimes use assisted reproductive technologies to achieve a pregnancy.'],
['can you still get pregnant if you are infertile?', "Human conception requires an egg and sperm. If you're not ovulating, you won't be able to get pregnant. Anovulation is a common cause of female infertility and it can be triggered by many conditions. Most women who are experiencing ovulation problems have irregular periods."],
]
scores = model.predict(pairs)
print(scores.shape)
# (5,)
# Or rank different texts based on similarity to a single text
ranks = model.rank(
'can you still get pregnant if you are infertile?',
[
'Many infertile couples will go on to conceive a child without treatment. After trying to get pregnant for two years, about 95 percent of couples successfully conceive.',
'Secondary infertility is the inability to become pregnant or to carry a baby to term after previously giving birth to a baby. Secondary infertility shares many of the same causes of primary infertility. Secondary infertility might be caused by: Impaired sperm production, function or delivery in men.',
"Problems with cervical mucus can interfere with getting pregnant. Mild cases may increase the time it takes to get pregnant, but won't necessarily cause infertility.",
'No treatment can stop the process of diminished ovarian reserve, but women who are infertile due to low egg count or quality can sometimes use assisted reproductive technologies to achieve a pregnancy.',
"Human conception requires an egg and sperm. If you're not ovulating, you won't be able to get pregnant. Anovulation is a common cause of female infertility and it can be triggered by many conditions. Most women who are experiencing ovulation problems have irregular periods.",
]
