Usage

Direct Usage (Sentence Transformers)

First install the Sentence Transformers library:

pip install -U sentence-transformers

Then you can load this model and run inference.

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("sachin19566/bge-base-en-v1.5-course-recommender-v1")
# Run inference
sentences = [
    'ARIMA',
    'Learn how to apply seasonal analysis and ARIMA models and how to decompose and identify seasonal and non-seasonal factors all while learning the nuances of building sophisticated time series models.',
    'Prerequisites required: Intro to Time Series Analysis',
]
embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
print(embeddings.shape)
# [3, 768]

# Get the similarity scores for the embeddings
similarities = model.similarity(embeddings, embeddings)
print(similarities.shape)
# [3, 3]

  Multiple Linear Regression	This course covers a supervised regression technique called Multiple regression which is used to model a relationship between a certain number of features and a continuous target variable. Students will learn how this relationship is then used to predict changes in the target variable. The course includes the foundations of Multiple regression models, how to build, evaluate and interpret these models.	Prerequisites required: Simple Linear Regression	This is an introductory level course for data scientists who want to learn to understand and estimate relationships between a set of independent variables and a continuous dependent variable.
  Advanced Clustering in R	This course covers the unsupervised learning method called clustering which is used to find patterns or groups in data without the need for labelled data. This course includes application of different methods of clustering on categorical or mixed data, equipping learners to build, evaluate, and interpret these models.	Prerequisites required: Intermediate Clustering in R	Professionals with some R experience who would like to expand their skillset to learn the core unsupervised learning techniques. Analysts with experience in another similar programming language who would like to learn core unsupervised learning frameworks and packages in R.
  Clustering in NLP	This course covers the clustering concepts of natural language processing, equipping learners with the ability to cluster text data into groups and topics by finding similarities between different documents.	Prerequisites required: Topic Modeling in NLP	This is an intermediate level course for data scientists who have some experience with NLP and want to learn to cluster textual data.
