MiniLM-L6-v2

Small embeddings for search, clustering and similarity.

Watch the test video

MiniLM-L6-v2 is a sentence similarity model. It maps sentences and paragraphs to a 384 dimensional dense vector space.

That makes it useful for information retrieval, clustering and sentence similarity, at only 22.7M parameters.

Key facts

  • Sentence similarity and embeddings model
  • 384 dimensional dense vectors
  • For retrieval, clustering and sentence similarity
  • 22.7M parameters, license apache-2.0

How to use it

  1. Sentences ya paragraphs do.
  2. Model un ko 384-dimensional vectors mein badalta hai.
  3. In vectors se search, clustering ya similarity nikalo.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Sirf 22.7M parameters, tez aur halka hai.
  • Search, clustering aur sentence similarity ke liye bana hai.
  • License apache-2.0 hai.

Cons

  • Chhota model hai, bare models jitni samajh ki umeed nahi.
  • Sirf embeddings deta hai, poora jawab nahi likhta.
  • Ye PikyAI ke test video ki coverage hai, posted reel nahi.

How this rank works

Directory rank is set by bid, not by editorial opinion. New listings start at $5, a higher bid outranks a lower one, and taking #1 costs at least $5 more than the current top bid. Paid ranks always carry a Sponsored label, and payments are final and non-refundable. This listing sits at the $5 floor as a PikyAI house listing, not a paid rank.
