Model Summary

Promptriever is a bi-encoder retrieval model that can take in natural language instructions and prompts. This version, promptriever-llama3.1-8b-instruct-v1 was instruction-trained on a corpus of 490k MSMarco samples with instructions and 490k without instructions. See the paper for more details.

Usage

You can use MTEB to load this model (source code):

import mteb
model = mteb.get_model("samaya-ai/promptriever-llama3.1-8b-instruct-v1")
tasks = mteb.get_tasks(tasks=["NFCorpus"], languages=["eng"])
evaluation = mteb.MTEB(tasks=tasks)
evaluation.run(model, batch_size=16)

If you want to use a different framework, here's an example of how to batch:

import torch
import torch.nn.functional as F
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModel
from peft import PeftModel, PeftConfig
import numpy as np

class Promptriever:
    def __init__(self, model_name_or_path):
        self.model, self.tokenizer = self.get_model(model_name_or_path)
        self.model.eval().cuda()

    def get_model(self, peft_model_name):
        # Load the PEFT configuration to get the base model name
        peft_config = PeftConfig.from_pretrained(peft_model_name)
        base_model_name = peft_config.base_model_name_or_path

        # Load the base model and tokenizer
        base_model = AutoModel.from_pretrained(base_model_name)
        tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(base_model_name)
        tokenizer.pad_token = tokenizer.eos_token
        tokenizer.pad_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id
        tokenizer.padding_side = "right"

        # Load and merge the PEFT model
        model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, peft_model_name)
        model = model.merge_and_unload()

        # can be much longer, but for the example 512 is enough
        model.config.max_length = 512
        tokenizer.model_max_length = 512

        return model, tokenizer

    def create_batch_dict(self, tokenizer, input_texts):
        max_length = self.model.config.max_length
        batch_dict = tokenizer(
            input_texts,
            max_length=max_length - 1,
            return_token_type_ids=False,
            return_attention_mask=False,
            padding=False,
            truncation=True,
        )
        batch_dict["input_ids"] = [
            input_ids + [tokenizer.eos_token_id]
            for input_ids in batch_dict["input_ids"]
        ]
        return tokenizer.pad(
            batch_dict,
            padding=True,
            pad_to_multiple_of=8,
            return_attention_mask=True,
            return_tensors="pt",
        )

    def encode(self, sentences, max_length: int = 2048, batch_size: int = 4):
        all_embeddings = []
        for i in range(0, len(sentences), batch_size):
            batch_texts = sentences[i : i + batch_size]

            batch_dict = self.create_batch_dict(self.tokenizer, batch_texts)
            batch_dict = {
                key: value.to(self.model.device) for key, value in batch_dict.items()
            }

            with torch.cuda.amp.autocast():
                with torch.no_grad():
                    outputs = self.model(**batch_dict)
                    last_hidden_state = outputs.last_hidden_state
                    sequence_lengths = batch_dict["attention_mask"].sum(dim=1) - 1
                    batch_size = last_hidden_state.shape[0]
                    reps = last_hidden_state[
                        torch.arange(batch_size, device=last_hidden_state.device),
                        sequence_lengths,
                    ]
                    embeddings = F.normalize(reps, p=2, dim=-1)
                    all_embeddings.append(embeddings.cpu().numpy())

        return np.concatenate(all_embeddings, axis=0)

# Initialize the model
model = Promptriever("samaya-ai/promptriever-llama2-7b-v1")

# Example query and instruction
query = "What universities are in Baltimore, Maryland?"

# add specific relevance conditions if desired (and/or/not) and any other prompts
instruction = "A relevant document would describe any university in Baltimore. I am not interested in any university that was the first American university. Think carefully about these conditions when determining relevance."

# Combine query and instruction with **two spaces** after "query: "
input_text = f"query:  {query.strip()} {instruction.strip()}".strip()

# Example documents
# NOTE: double space after `passage:`
doc1 = "passage:  Johns Hopkins University (often abbreviated as Johns Hopkins, Hopkins, or JHU) is a private research university in Baltimore, Maryland. Founded in 1876, Johns Hopkins was the first American university based on the European research institution model."
doc2 = "passage:  Johns Hopkins University (often abbreviated as Johns Hopkins, Hopkins, or JHU) is a private research university in Baltimore, Maryland. Founded in 1876, Johns Hopkins was the second American university based on the European research institution model."

# Encode query and documents
query_embedding = model.encode([input_text])
doc_embeddings = model.encode([doc1, doc2])

# Calculate similarities
similarities = np.dot(query_embedding, doc_embeddings.T)[0]
print(f"Similarities: {similarities}") # Similarities: [0.53341305 0.53451955]
assert similarities[1] > similarities[0]


# change up the instruction to the opposite, to see it works
instruction = "A relevant document would describe any university in Baltimore. I am interested in any university that was the first American university. Think carefully about these conditions when determining relevance."
input_text = f"query:  {query.strip()} {instruction.strip()}".strip()
query_embedding = model.encode([input_text])
similarities = np.dot(query_embedding, doc_embeddings.T)[0]
print(f"Similarities: {similarities}") # Similarities: [0.60182875 0.5874183 ]
assert similarities[0] > similarities[1]

Training

We used a fork of Tevatron to fine-tune promptriever with the samaya-ai/msmarco-w-instructions dataset.

You can reproduce this with this script (reproduced here for convenience).
