# Model Card for `passage-ranker.pistachio`

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.pistachio`

## Supported Languages

The model was trained and tested in the following languages:

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

Besides the aforementioned languages, basic support can be expected for additional 93 languages that were used during the pretraining of the base model (see
[list of languages](https://github.com/google-research/bert/blob/master/multilingual.md#list-of-languages)).

## Scores

| Metric                      | Value |
|:----------------------------|------:|
| English Relevance (NDCG@10) | 0.474 |
| Polish Relevance (NDCG@10)  | 0.380 |

Note that the relevance score is computed as an average over several retrieval datasets (see
[details below](#evaluation-metrics)).

## Inference Times

| GPU                                       | Quantization type |  Batch size 1  |  Batch size 32 |
|:------------------------------------------|:------------------|---------------:|---------------:|
| NVIDIA A10                                | FP16              |           2 ms |          28 ms |
| NVIDIA A10                                | FP32              |           4 ms |          82 ms |
| NVIDIA T4                                 | FP16              |           3 ms |          65 ms |
| NVIDIA T4                                 | FP32              |          14 ms |         369 ms |
| NVIDIA L4                                 | FP16              |           3 ms |          38 ms |
| NVIDIA L4                                 | FP32              |           5 ms |         123 ms |

## Gpu Memory usage

| Quantization type                                |   Memory   |
|:-------------------------------------------------|-----------:|
| FP16                                             |    850 MiB |
| FP32                                             |   1200 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](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-gpus): above 5.0 (above 6.0 for FP16 use)

## Model Details

#### Other languages

We evaluated the model on the datasets of the [MIRACL benchmark](https://github.com/project-miracl/miracl) to test its
multilingual capacities. Note that not all training languages are part of the benchmark, so we only report the metrics
for the existing languages.

|:----------------------|--------:|
| French                |   0.439 |
| German                |   0.418 |
