SentenceTransformer based on Snowflake/snowflake-arctic-embed-l

This is a sentence-transformers model finetuned from Snowflake/snowflake-arctic-embed-l . It maps sentences & paragraphs to a 1024-dimensional dense vector space and can be used for semantic textual similarity, semantic search, paraphrase mining, text classification, clustering, and more.

Usage

Direct Usage (Sentence Transformers)

First install the Sentence Transformers library:

pip install -U sentence-transformers

Then you can load this model and run inference.

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer

# Download from the 🤗 Hub
model = SentenceTransformer("llm-wizard/legal-ft")
# Run inference
sentences = [

  What provisions of the 2023-2024 Handbook were referenced regarding the use of AI and academic integrity?	13 procedure, expectation, conduct, discipline, sanction or consequence for the use of AI. Id. at ¶102. Under these circumstances, the use of AI was not a violation of the then existing “Academic Integrity: Cheating and Plagiarism” provisions of the 2023-2024 Handbook. Id. at ¶104. As such, accusations of cheating, plagiarism, and academic misconduct or dishonesty were not supported by the record evidence which, at all times relevant, the Defendants have had in their care, custody and control. Id. at ¶105. While there is much dispute as to whether the use of generative AI constitutes plagiarism, plagiarism is defined as the practice of taking someone else’s work or ideas and passing them off
