🚀 Let’s transform LLMs into encoders 🚀

Auto-regressive LMs have ruled, but encoder-based architectures like GLiNER are proving to be just as powerful for information extraction while offering better efficiency and interpretability. 🔍✨

Past encoder backbones were limited by small pre-training datasets and old techniques, but with innovations like LLM2Vec, we've transformed decoders into high-performing encoders! 🔄💡

What’s New?
🔹Converted Llama & Qwen decoders to advanced encoders
🔹Improved GLiNER architecture to be able to work with rotary positional encoding
🔹New GLiNER (zero-shot NER) & GLiClass (zero-shot classification) models

🔥 Check it out:

🚀 Meet the new GLiNER architecture 🚀
GLiNER revolutionized zero-shot NER by demonstrating that lightweight encoders can achieve excellent results. We're excited to continue R&D with this spirit 🔥. Our new bi-encoder and poly-encoder architectures were developed to address the main limitations of the original GLiNER architecture and bring the following new possibilities:

🔹 An unlimited number of entities can be recognized at once.
🔹Faster inference when entity embeddings are preprocessed.
🔹Better generalization to unseen entities.

While the bi-encoder architecture can lack inter-label understanding, we developed a poly-encoder architecture with post-fusion. It achieves the same or even better results on many benchmarking datasets compared to the original GLiNER, while still offering the listed advantages of bi-encoders.
Now, it’s possible to run GLiNER with hundreds of entities much faster and more reliably.
