ModelScope (Home | GitHub) is built upon the notion of “Model-as-a-Service” (MaaS). It seeks to bring together most advanced machine learning models from the AI community, and streamlines the process of leveraging AI models in real-world applications. The core ModelScope library open-sourced in this repository provides the interfaces and implementations that allow developers to perform model inference, training and evaluation. This will help you get started with ModelScope embedding models using LangChain.

Overview

Integration details

Setup

To access ModelScope embedding models you’ll need to create a/an ModelScope account, get an API key, and install the langchain-modelscope-integration integration package.

Credentials

Head to ModelScope to sign up to ModelScope.

Installation

The LangChain ModelScope integration lives in the langchain-modelscope-integration package:

Instantiation

Now we can instantiate our model object:

Indexing and retrieval

Embedding models are often used in retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) flows, both as part of indexing data as well as later retrieving it. For more detailed instructions, please see our RAG tutorials. Below, see how to index and retrieve data using the embeddings object we initialized above. In this example, we will index and retrieve a sample document in the InMemoryVectorStore.

Direct usage

Under the hood, the vectorstore and retriever implementations are calling embeddings.embed_documents(...) and embeddings.embed_query(...) to create embeddings for the text(s) used in from_texts and retrieval invoke operations, respectively. You can directly call these methods to get embeddings for your own use cases.

Embed single texts

You can embed single texts or documents with embed_query:

Embed multiple texts

You can embed multiple texts with embed_documents:
