SPECTER2
SPECTER2 is a family of models that succeeds SPECTER and is capable of generating task specific embeddings for scientific tasks when paired with adapters. Given the combination of title and abstract of a scientific paper or a short texual query, the model can be used to generate effective embeddings to be used in downstream applications.
Note:For general embedding purposes, please use allenai/specter2.
To get the best performance on a downstream task type please load the associated adapter () with the base model as in the example below.
Dec 2023 Update:
Model usage updated to be compatible with latest versions of transformers and adapters (newly released update to adapter-transformers) libraries.
Aug 2023 Update:
- The SPECTER2 Base and proximity adapter models have been renamed in Hugging Face based upon usage patterns as follows:
Old Name | New Name |
---|---|
allenai/specter2 | allenai/specter2_base |
allenai/specter2_proximity | allenai/specter2 |
- We have a parallel version (termed aug2023refresh) where the base transformer encoder version is pre-trained on a collection of newer papers (published after 2018). However, for benchmarking purposes, please continue using the current version.
Adapter allenai/specter2_adhoc_query
for allenai/specter2_base
An adapter for the allenai/specter2_base
model that was trained on the allenai/scirepeval dataset.
This adapter was created for usage with the adapters library.
Adapter Usage
First, install adapters
:
pip install -U adapters
Note: adapters is built as an add-on to transformers that acts as a drop-in replacement with adapter support. More
Now, the adapter can be loaded and activated like this:
from adapters import AutoAdapterModel
model = AutoAdapterModel.from_pretrained("allenai/specter2_base")
adapter_name = model.load_adapter("allenai/specter2_adhoc_query", source="hf", set_active=True)
Model Details
Model Description
SPECTER2 has been trained on over 6M triplets of scientific paper citations, which are available here. Post that it is trained with additionally attached task format specific adapter modules on all the SciRepEval training tasks.
Task Formats trained on:
- Classification
- Regression
- Proximity (Retrieval)
- Adhoc Search
This is the adhoc search query specific adapter. For tasks where papers have to retrieved for a short textual query, use this adapter to encode the query and allenai/specter2_proximity to encode the candidates.
It builds on the work done in SciRepEval: A Multi-Format Benchmark for Scientific Document Representations and we evaluate the trained model on this benchmark as well.

Direct Use
Model | Name and HF link | Description |
---|---|---|
Proximity* | allenai/specter2 | Encode papers as queries and candidates eg. Link Prediction, Nearest Neighbor Search |
Adhoc Query | allenai/specter2_adhoc_query | Encode short raw text queries for search tasks. (Candidate papers can be encoded with the proximity adapter) |
Classification | allenai/specter2_classification | Encode papers to feed into linear classifiers as features |
Regression | allenai/specter2_regression | Encode papers to feed into linear regressors as features |

Training Details
Training Data
The base model is trained on citation links between papers and the adapters are trained on 8 large scale tasks across the four formats. All the data is a part of SciRepEval benchmark and is available here.
The citation link are triplets in the form
{"query": {"title": ..., "abstract": ...}, "pos": {"title": ..., "abstract": ...}, "neg": {"title": ..., "abstract": ...}}
consisting of a query paper, a positive citation and a negative which can be from the same/different field of study as the query or citation of a citation.
Training Procedure
Please refer to the SPECTER paper.
Training Hyperparameters
The model is trained in two stages using SciRepEval:
- Base Model: First a base model is trained on the above citation triplets.
batch size = 1024, max input length = 512, learning rate = 2e-5, epochs = 2 warmup steps = 10% fp16
- Adapters: Thereafter, task format specific adapters are trained on the SciRepEval training tasks, where 600K triplets are sampled from above and added to the training data as well.
batch size = 256, max input length = 512, learning rate = 1e-4, epochs = 6 warmup = 1000 steps fp16
Evaluation
We evaluate the model on SciRepEval, a large scale eval benchmark for scientific embedding tasks which which has [SciDocs] as a subset. We also evaluate and establish a new SoTA on MDCR, a large scale citation recommendation benchmark.
