Sparse lexical SPLADE model. See SpladeConfig for configuration options.

__init__(config: SingleVectorBiEncoderConfig, *args, **kwargs) → None[source]

Initializes a SPLADE model given a SpladeConfig.

Parameters:: config (SingleVectorBiEncoderConfig) – Configuration for the SPLADE model

Methods

`__init__`(config, args, *kwargs)	Initializes a SPLADE model given a `SpladeConfig`.
`encode`(encoding, input_type)	Encodes a batched tokenized text sequences and returns the embeddings and scoring mask.
`from_pretrained`(model_name_or_path, *args, ...)	Loads a pretrained model and handles mapping the MLM head weights to the projection head weights. Wraps
`get_output_embeddings`()	Returns the output embeddings of the model for tieing the input and output embeddings.
`set_output_embeddings`(new_embeddings)

Attributes

training

ALLOW_SUB_BATCHING = True: Flag to allow mini batches of documents for a single query. Set to false for listwise models to ensure correctness.

compute_similarity(query_embeddings: BiEncoderEmbedding, doc_embeddings: BiEncoderEmbedding, num_docs: Sequence[int] | int | None = None) → Tensor

Computes the similarity score between all query and document embedding vector pairs.

Parameters:

query_embeddings (BiEncoderEmbedding) – Embeddings of the queries
doc_embeddings (BiEncoderEmbedding) – Embeddings of the documents
num_docs (Sequence[int] | int | None, optional) – Specifies how many documents are passed per query. If a sequence of integers, len(num_doc) should be equal to the number of queries and sum(num_docs) equal to the number of documents, i.e., the sequence contains one value per query specifying the number of documents for that query. If an integer, assumes an equal number of documents per query. If None, tries to infer the number of documents by dividing the number of documents by the number of queries, defaults to None

Returns:

Similarity scores between all query and document embedding vector pairs

Return type:

torch.Tensor

config_class

Configuration class for a SPLADE model.
