## gte-multilingual-reranker-base

The **gte-multilingual-reranker-base** model is the first reranker model in the [GTE](https://huggingface.co/collections/Alibaba-NLP/gte-models-6680f0b13f885cb431e6d469) family of models, featuring several key attributes:
- **High Performance**: Achieves state-of-the-art (SOTA) results in multilingual retrieval tasks and multi-task representation model evaluations when compared to reranker models of similar size.
- **Training Architecture**: Trained using an encoder-only transformers architecture, resulting in a smaller model size. Unlike previous models based on decode-only LLM architecture (e.g., gte-qwen2-1.5b-instruct), this model has lower hardware requirements for inference, offering a 10x increase in inference speed.
- **Long Context**: Supports text lengths up to **8192** tokens.
- **Multilingual Capability**: Supports over **70** languages.


## Model Information
- Model Size: 306M
- Max Input Tokens: 8192


### Usage
- **It is recommended to install xformers and enable unpadding for acceleration,
refer to [enable-unpadding-and-xformers](https://huggingface.co/Alibaba-NLP/new-impl#recommendation-enable-unpadding-and-acceleration-with-xformers).**
- **How to use it offline: [new-impl/discussions/2](https://huggingface.co/Alibaba-NLP/new-impl/discussions/2#662b08d04d8c3d0a09c88fa3)**


Using Huggingface transformers (transformers>=4.36.0)
```
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForSequenceClassification, AutoTokenizer

model_name_or_path = "Alibaba-NLP/gte-multilingual-reranker-base"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path)
model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained(
    model_name_or_path, trust_remote_code=True,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16
)
model.eval()

pairs = [["中国的首都在哪儿","北京"], ["what is the capital of China?", "北京"], ["how to implement quick sort in python?","Introduction of quick sort"]]
with torch.no_grad():
    inputs = tokenizer(pairs, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt', max_length=512)
    scores = model(**inputs, return_dict=True).logits.view(-1, ).float()
    print(scores)

# tensor([1.2315, 0.5923, 0.3041])
```

**More detailed experimental results can be found in the [paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2407.19669)**.

## Cloud API Services

In addition to the open-source [GTE](https://huggingface.co/collections/Alibaba-NLP/gte-models-6680f0b13f885cb431e6d469) series models, GTE series models are also available as commercial API services on Alibaba Cloud.

- [Embedding Models](https://help.aliyun.com/zh/model-studio/developer-reference/general-text-embedding/): Rhree versions of the text embedding models are available: text-embedding-v1/v2/v3, with v3 being the latest API service.
- [ReRank Models](https://help.aliyun.com/zh/model-studio/developer-reference/general-text-sorting-model/): The gte-rerank model service is available.

Note that the models behind the commercial APIs are not entirely identical to the open-source models.
