Task-oriented finetuning for better embeddings on neural search.

Task-oriented finetuning for better embeddings on neural search

Fine-tuning is an effective way to improve the performance on neural search tasks. However, it is non-trivial for many deep learning engineers.

Finetuner makes fine-tuning easier, faster and performant by streamlining the workflow and handling all complexity and infrastructure on the cloud. With Finetuner, one can easily uplift pre-trained models to be more performant and production ready.

📈 Performance promise: uplift pretrained model and deliver SOTA performance on domain-specific neural search applications.

🔱 Simple yet powerful: easy access to 40+ mainstream losses, 10+ optimisers, layer pruning, weights freezing, dimensionality reduction, hard-negative mining, cross-modal model, distributed training.

☁ All-in-cloud: instant training with our free GPU (Apply here for free!); manage runs, experiments and artifacts on Jina Cloud without worrying about provisioning resources, integration complexity and infrastructure.

Install

Make sure you have Python 3.7+ installed. Finetuner can be installed via pip by executing:

pip install -U finetuner

If you want to encode docarray.DocumentArray objects with the finetuner.encode function, you need to install "finetuner[full]". In this case, some extra dependencies are installed which are necessary to do the inference, e.g., torch, torchvision, and open clip:

pip install "finetuner[full]"

From 0.5.0, Finetuner computing is hosted on Jina Cloud. THe last local version is 0.4.1, one can install it via pip or check out git tags/releases here.

Get Started

The following code snippet describes how to fine-tune ResNet50 on Totally Looks Like dataset, it can be run as-is:

import finetuner
from finetuner.callback import EvaluationCallback

finetuner.login()

run = finetuner.fit(
    model='resnet50',
    run_name='resnet50-tll-run',
    train_data='tll-train-da',
    callbacks=[
        EvaluationCallback(
            query_data='tll-test-query-da',
            index_data='tll-test-index-da',
        )
    ],
)

Fine-tuning might take 5 minute to finish. You can later re-connect your run with:

import finetuner

finetuner.login()

run = finetuner.get_run('resnet50-tll-run')

for msg in run.stream_logs():
    print(msg)

run.save_artifact('resnet-tll')

Specifically, the code snippet describes the following steps:

• Login to Finetuner (Get free access here!)
• Select backbone model, training and evaluation data for your evaluation callback.
• Start the cloud run.
• Monitor the status: check the status and logs of the run.
• Save model for further use and integration.

Finally, you can use the model to encode images:

import finetuner
from docarray import Document, DocumentArray

da = DocumentArray([Document(uri='~/Pictures/your_img.png')])

model = finetuner.get_model('resnet-tll')
finetuner.encode(model=model, data=da)

da.summary()

Next steps

• Take the walkthrough and submit your first fine-tuning job.
• Try on different search tasks:
  • Text-to-Text Search via BERT
  • Image-to-Image Search via ResNet50
  • Text-to-Image Search via CLIP
