via “sentence-level semantic similarity scoring via cosine distance”

feature-extraction model by undefined. 57,93,469 downloads.

Unique: Embedding space is explicitly optimized for cosine similarity through contrastive training (likely using InfoNCE or similar objectives), meaning the 384-dimensional space is calibrated for this specific distance metric rather than being a generic feature extractor. This differs from models trained purely for classification, where similarity may be a secondary property.
