Can these embeddings be used for translation puposes?

NairaRahim changed discussion title from Transaltion Task to Translation Task
Sentence Transformers org

I.e. for detecting similar sentences in different languages? No, this model is designed for English only.
Some good options for that might be:

Or searching for Sentence Transformer models with your desired language, e.g.: https://huggingface.co/models?library=sentence-transformers&language=de&sort=trending

If you want to actually do translation, you should look for translation models: https://huggingface.co/models?pipeline_tag=translation&sort=trending

@tomaarsen Thanks for replying.
I am just looking into creating my own pipeline for translation into a low resource language and was looking for text embeddings to use in my own translation pipeline. I was trying to use the embeddings using LASER3 but I was not sure how to use that.
