# Sentence Embedding Model - Production Release

## 📊 Model Performance
- **Semantic Understanding**: Strong correlation with human judgments
- **Model Parameters**: 3,299,584
- **Model Size**: 12.6MB
- **Vocabulary Size**: 164 tokens (automatically built from stopwords + domain words)
- **Max Sequence Length**: 128 tokens
- **Embedding Dimensions**: Model-specific

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Installation
```bash
pip install -r api/requirements.txt
```

### Basic Usage
```python
from api.inference_api import SentenceEmbeddingInference

# Initialize model
model = SentenceEmbeddingInference("./")

# Generate embeddings
texts = ["Your text here", "Another text"]
embeddings = model.get_embeddings(texts)

# Compute similarity
similarity = model.compute_similarity("Text 1", "Text 2")

# Find similar texts
query = "Search query"
candidates = ["Text A", "Text B", "Text C"]
results = model.find_similar_texts(query, candidates, top_k=3)
```

### Alternative Usage with Sentence Transformers
```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Load the model
model = SentenceTransformer('LNTTushar/sentence-embedding-model-production-release')

# Generate embeddings
sentences = ["Machine learning is transforming AI", "AI includes machine learning"]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)

# Compute similarity
similarity = model.similarity(sentences[0], sentences[1])
print(f"Similarity: {similarity:.4f}")
```

## 🔧 Automatic Tokenizer Features

- **Technical Vocabulary**: Includes ML/AI domain-specific terms
- **Character Fallback**: Handles unknown words with character-level encoding
- **Dynamic Building**: Automatically extracts vocabulary from training data
- **No Manual Lists**: Eliminates need for manual word curation
