Hi @gladmortal
A good way it to look at models listed here:
https://www.sbert.net/docs/pretrained_models.html 5
There you find different categories of models with some performance results.
For your use-case, I recommend models trained on MS MARCO:
https://www.sbert.net/docs/pretrained-models/msmarco-v3.html 8
These models were trained for the use case that the user inputs a search query and the system searches for relevant passages that provide the answer.
A model that works well is ’ msmarco-distilbert-base-tas-b’ combined with dot product
