Model Card for passage-ranker.strawberry

This model is a passage ranker developed by Sinequa. It produces a relevance score given a query-passage pair and is used to order search results.

Model name: passage-ranker.strawberry

Supported Languages

The model was trained and tested in the following languages:

  • Chinese (simplified)
  • Dutch
  • English
  • French
  • German
  • Italian
  • Japanese
  • Portuguese
  • Spanish

Besides the aforementioned languages, basic support can be expected for additional 91 languages that were used during the pretraining of the base model (see Appendix A of XLM-R paper).

Scores

Metric Value
Relevance (NDCG@10) 0.451

Note that the relevance score is computed as an average over 14 retrieval datasets (see details below).

Inference Times

GPU Quantization type Batch size 1 Batch size 32
NVIDIA A10 FP16 1 ms 5 ms
NVIDIA A10 FP32 2 ms 22 ms
NVIDIA T4 FP16 1 ms 13 ms
NVIDIA T4 FP32 3 ms 64 ms
NVIDIA L4 FP16 2 ms 6 ms
NVIDIA L4 FP32 2 ms 30 ms

Gpu Memory usage

Quantization type Memory
FP16 550 MiB
FP32 1100 MiB

Note that GPU memory usage only includes how much GPU memory the actual model consumes on an NVIDIA T4 GPU with a batch size of 32. It does not include the fix amount of memory that is consumed by the ONNX Runtime upon initialization which can be around 0.5 to 1 GiB depending on the used GPU.

Requirements

  • Minimal Sinequa version: 11.10.0
  • Minimal Sinequa version for using FP16 models and GPUs with CUDA compute capability of 8.9+ (like NVIDIA L4): 11.11.0
  • Cuda compute capability: above 5.0 (above 6.0 for FP16 use)
