NanoBEIREvaluator¶
This class evaluates the performance of a PyLate Model on the NanoBEIR collection of datasets. This is a direct extension of the NanoBEIREvaluator from the sentence-transformers library, leveraging the PyLateInformationRetrievalEvaluator class.
The collection is a set of datasets based on the BEIR collection, but with a significantly smaller size, so it can be used for quickly evaluating the retrieval performance of a model before commiting to a full evaluation. The datasets are available on HuggingFace at https://huggingface.co/collections/zeta-alpha-ai/nanobeir-66e1a0af21dfd93e620cd9f6 The Evaluator will return the same metrics as the InformationRetrievalEvaluator (i.e., MRR, nDCG, Recall@k), for each dataset and on average.

Methods¶
call
This is called during training to evaluate the model. It returns a score for the evaluation with a higher score indicating a better result.
Args: model: the model to evaluate output_path: path where predictions and metrics are written to epoch: the epoch where the evaluation takes place. This is used for the file prefixes. If this is -1, then we assume evaluation on test data. steps: the steps in the current epoch at time of the evaluation. This is used for the file prefixes. If this is -1, then we assume evaluation at the end of the epoch. Returns: Either a score for the evaluation with a higher score indicating a better result, or a dictionary with scores. If the latter is chosen, then evaluator.primary_metric
must be defined
Parameters
- model ('SentenceTransformer')
- output_path ('str') – defaults to
None
- epoch ('int') – defaults to
-1
