# mlx-community/embeddinggemma-300m-4bit

The Model [mlx-community/embeddinggemma-300m-4bit](https://huggingface.co/mlx-community/embeddinggemma-300m-4bit) was converted to MLX format from [google/embeddinggemma-300m-qat-q4_0-unquantized](https://huggingface.co/google/embeddinggemma-300m-qat-q4_0-unquantized) using mlx-lm version **0.0.4**.

## Use with mlx

```bash
pip install mlx-embeddings
```

```python
from mlx_embeddings import load, generate
import mlx.core as mx

model, tokenizer = load("mlx-community/embeddinggemma-300m-4bit")

# For text embedding
sentences = [
    "task: sentence similarity | query: Nothing really matters.",
    "task: sentence similarity | query: The dog is barking.",
    "task: sentence similarity | query: The dog is barking.",
]

encoded_input = tokenizer(sentences, padding=True, truncation=True, return_tensors='mlx')

# Compute token embeddings
input_ids = encoded_input['input_ids']
attention_mask = encoded_input['attention_mask']
output = model(input_ids, attention_mask)

embeddings = output.text_embeds  # Normalized embeddings

# Compute dot product between normalized embeddings
similarity_matrix = mx.matmul(embeddings, embeddings.T)

print("Similarity matrix between texts:")
print(similarity_matrix)


# You can use these task-specific prefixes for different tasks
