# Reranker

**More details please refer to our Github: [FlagEmbedding](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master).**

Different from embedding model, reranker uses question and document as input and directly output similarity instead of embedding. 
You can get a relevance score by inputting query and passage to the reranker. 
And the score can be mapped to a float value in [0,1] by sigmoid function.

## Usage 
### Using FlagEmbedding

```
pip install -U FlagEmbedding
```

#### For normal reranker (bge-reranker-base / bge-reranker-large / bge-reranker-v2-m3 )

Get relevance scores (higher scores indicate more relevance):

```python
from FlagEmbedding import FlagReranker
reranker = FlagReranker('BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-m3', use_fp16=True) # Setting use_fp16 to True speeds up computation with a slight performance degradation

score = reranker.compute_score(['query', 'passage'])
print(score) # -5.65234375

# You can map the scores into 0-1 by set "normalize=True", which will apply sigmoid function to the score
score = reranker.compute_score(['query', 'passage'], normalize=True)
print(score) # 0.003497010252573502

scores = reranker.compute_score([['what is panda?', 'hi'], ['what is panda?', 'The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), sometimes called a panda bear or simply panda, is a bear species endemic to China.']])
print(scores) # [-8.1875, 5.26171875]

# You can map the scores into 0-1 by set "normalize=True", which will apply sigmoid function to the score
scores = reranker.compute_score([['what is panda?', 'hi'], ['what is panda?', 'The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), sometimes called a panda bear or simply panda, is a bear species endemic to China.']], normalize=True)
print(scores) # [0.00027803096387751553, 0.9948403768236574]
```

#### For LLM-based reranker

```python
from FlagEmbedding import FlagLLMReranker
reranker = FlagLLMReranker('BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-gemma', use_fp16=True) # Setting use_fp16 to True speeds up computation with a slight performance degradation
# reranker = FlagLLMReranker('BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-gemma', use_bf16=True) # You can also set use_bf16=True to speed up computation with a slight performance degradation

score = reranker.compute_score(['query', 'passage'])
print(score)

scores = reranker.compute_score([['what is panda?', 'hi'], ['what is panda?', 'The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), sometimes called a panda bear or simply panda, is a bear species endemic to China.']])
print(scores)
```

#### For LLM-based layerwise reranker

```python
from FlagEmbedding import LayerWiseFlagLLMReranker
reranker = LayerWiseFlagLLMReranker('BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-minicpm-layerwise', use_fp16=True) # Setting use_fp16 to True speeds up computation with a slight performance degradation
# reranker = LayerWiseFlagLLMReranker('BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-minicpm-layerwise', use_bf16=True) # You can also set use_bf16=True to speed up computation with a slight performance degradation

score = reranker.compute_score(['query', 'passage'], cutoff_layers=[28]) # Adjusting 'cutoff_layers' to pick which layers are used for computing the score.
print(score)

scores = reranker.compute_score([['what is panda?', 'hi'], ['what is panda?', 'The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), sometimes called a panda bear or simply panda, is a bear species endemic to China.']], cutoff_layers=[28])
print(scores)
```

### Using Huggingface transformers

#### For normal reranker (bge-reranker-base / bge-reranker-large / bge-reranker-v2-m3 )

model = AutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained('BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-m3')
model.eval()

pairs = [['what is panda?', 'hi'], ['what is panda?', 'The giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca), sometimes called a panda bear or simply panda, is a bear species endemic to China.']]
with torch.no_grad():
    inputs = tokenizer(pairs, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='pt', max_length=512)

## Fine-tune

### Data Format

Train data should be a json file, where each line is a dict like this:

```
{"query": str, "pos": List[str], "neg":List[str], "prompt": str}
```

`query` is the query, and `pos` is a list of positive texts, `neg` is a list of negative texts, `prompt` indicates the relationship between query and texts. If you have no negative texts for a query, you can random sample some from the entire corpus as the negatives.

See [toy_finetune_data.jsonl](https://github.com/FlagOpen/FlagEmbedding/tree/master/FlagEmbedding/llm_reranker/toy_finetune_data.jsonl) for a toy data file.
