  # use-cmlm-multilingual
  This is a pytorch version of the [universal-sentence-encoder-cmlm/multilingual-base-br](https://tfhub.dev/google/universal-sentence-encoder-cmlm/multilingual-base-br/1) model. It can be used to map 109 languages to a shared vector space. As the model is based [LaBSE](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/LaBSE), it perform quite comparable on downstream tasks.
  
  
  ## Usage (Sentence-Transformers)
  
  Using this model becomes easy when you have [sentence-transformers](https://www.SBERT.net) installed:
  
  ```
  pip install -U sentence-transformers
  ```
  
  Then you can use the model like this:
  
  ```python
  from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
  sentences = ["This is an example sentence", "Each sentence is converted"]
  
  model = SentenceTransformer('sentence-transformers/use-cmlm-multilingual')
  embeddings = model.encode(sentences)
  print(embeddings)
  ```
  
  
  
  ## Evaluation Results
  
  
  
  For an automated evaluation of this model, see the *Sentence Embeddings Benchmark*: [https://seb.sbert.net](https://seb.sbert.net?model_name=sentence-transformers/LaBSE)
