Using the model

The model can be loaded with experimaestro IR

from xpmir.models import AutoModel

# Model that can be re-used in experiments 
model = AutoModel.load_from_hf_hub("xpmir/SPLADE_max")

# Use this if you want to actually use the model 
model = AutoModel.load_from_hf_hub("xpmir/SPLADE_max", as_instance=True)
model.initialize()
model.rsv("walgreens store sales average", "The average Walgreens salary ranges...")
