Transfer Learning with Sentence Embeddings

Transfer Learning with Sentence Embeddings takes a large pre-trained encoder — such as Sentence-BERT or the Universal Sentence Encoder — that already encodes general language knowledge into fixed-length vectors, and adapts it to a new task or domain with little additional labelled data. The pre-trained representations give a head start that often outperforms task-specific models trained from scratch on modest corpora.
