## Smart Binary Training Innovation
### 🎯 Intelligent 1:2 Ratio Strategy
```
Traditional Approach (1:3 ratio):
❌ 1 Correct : 3 Random Negatives
❌ Often too aggressive, hurts recall
❌ No intelligence in negative selection
Smart Binary Approach (1:2 ratio):
✅ 1 Correct : 1 Hard Negative (from related) : 1 Easy Negative (from irrelevant)
✅ Better precision/recall balance
✅ Intelligent negative selection
✅ Enhanced user experience
```
### 🧠 Intelligent Negative Selection
- **Hard Negatives**: Randomly selected từ related chunks (educational content)
- Forces model to learn fine-grained distinctions
- Improves semantic understanding
- Reduces false positives on similar content
- **Easy Negatives**: Randomly selected từ irrelevant chunks
- Maintains clear boundaries
- Prevents overgeneralization
- Ensures robust performance
### ⚖️ Precision/Recall Balance Benefits
```
Previous 1:3 Ratio Results:
- High Precision (Accuracy@1: ~76%)
- Lower Recall (Hit@3: ~92%)
- User frustration với missed relevant results
Smart Binary 1:2 Ratio Results:
- Maintained Precision (Accuracy@1: ~77%+)
- Improved Recall (Hit@3: ~95%+)
- Better overall user satisfaction
```
## Usage
### Basic Usage
```python
from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import cosine_similarity
# Load smart binary trained model
model = SentenceTransformer('ThanhLe0125/e5-math-smart-binary')
# ⚠️ CRITICAL: Must use E5 prefixes
query = "query: Cách tính đạo hàm của hàm hợp"
chunks = [
"passage: Đạo hàm hàm hợp: (f(g(x)))' = f'(g(x)) × g'(x)", # Should rank #1
"passage: Ví dụ tính đạo hàm hàm hợp với x²+1", # Related (hard negative during training)
"passage: Định nghĩa tích phân xác định trên đoạn [a,b]" # Irrelevant (easy negative)
]
# Encode and rank
query_emb = model.encode([query])
chunk_embs = model.encode(chunks)
similarities = cosine_similarity(query_emb, chunk_embs)[0]
# Smart binary model provides balanced ranking
ranked_indices = similarities.argsort()[::-1]
for rank, idx in enumerate(ranked_indices, 1):
print(f"Rank {rank}: Score {similarities[idx]:.4f} - {chunks[idx][:60]}...")
# Expected with smart binary training:
# Rank 1: Correct answer (score ~0.87+)
# Rank 2: Related content (score ~0.65+)
# Rank 3: Irrelevant content (score ~0.20+)
```
### Production-Ready Retrieval
```python
class SmartBinaryMathRetriever:
def __init__(self):
self.model = SentenceTransformer('ThanhLe0125/e5-math-smart-binary')
def retrieve_balanced(self, query, chunks, top_k=5):
"""Balanced retrieval với smart binary model"""
# Format inputs
formatted_query = f"query: {query}" if not query.startswith("query:") else query
formatted_chunks = [f"passage: {chunk}" if not chunk.startswith("passage:") else chunk
for chunk in chunks]
# Encode
query_emb = self.model.encode([formatted_query])
chunk_embs = self.model.encode(formatted_chunks)
similarities = cosine_similarity(query_emb, chunk_embs)[0]
# Smart binary ranking
top_indices = similarities.argsort()[::-1][:top_k]
results = []
for rank, idx in enumerate(top_indices):
# Smart binary model provides confidence scores
confidence = "high" if similarities[idx] > 0.8 else "medium" if similarities[idx] > 0.5 else "low"
results.append({
'chunk': chunks[idx],
'similarity': float(similarities[idx]),
'rank': rank + 1,
'confidence': confidence
})
return results
# Usage
retriever = SmartBinaryMathRetriever()
results = retriever.retrieve_balanced(
"Công thức tính diện tích hình tròn",
math_chunks,
top_k=3
)
# Smart binary ensures balanced precision/recall
for result in results:
print(f"Rank {result['rank']}: {result['confidence']} confidence")
print(f"Score: {result['similarity']:.4f} - {result['chunk'][:50]}...")
