# Applications
SentenceTransformers can be used for various use-cases. In these folders, you find several example scripts that show case how SentenceTransformers can be used
## Computing Embeddings
The [computing-embeddings](computing-embeddings/) folder contains examples how to compute sentence embeddings using SentenceTransformers.
## Clustering
The [clustering](clustering/) folder shows how SentenceTransformers can be used for text clustering, i.e., grouping sentences together based on their similarity.
## Cross-Encoder
SentenceTransformers also support training and inference of [Cross-Encoders](cross-encoder/). There, two sentences are presented simultaneously to the transformer network and a score (0...1) is derived indicating the similarity or a label.
## Parallel Sentence Mining
The [parallel-sentence-mining](parallel-sentence-mining/) folder contains examples of how parallel (translated) sentences can be found in two corpora of different languages. For example, you take the English and the Spanish Wikipedia and the script finds and returns all translated English-Spanish sentence pairs.
## Paraphrase Mining
The [paraphrase-mining](paraphrase-mining/) folder contains examples to find all paraphrase sentences in a large set of sentences. The example can be used to find e.g. duplicate questions or duplicate sentences in a set of Millions of questions / sentences.
## Semantic Search
The [semantic-search](semantic-search/) folder shows examples for semantic search: Given a sentence, find in a large collection semantically similar sentences.
## Retrieve & Rerank
The [retrieve_rerank](retrieve_rerank/) folder shows how to combine a bi-encoder for semantic search retrieval and a more powerful re-ranking stage with a cross-encoder.
## Image Search
The [image-search](image-search/) folder shows how to use the image&text-models, which can map images and text to the same vector space. This allows for an image search given a user query.
## Text Summarization
The [text-summarization](text-summarization/) folder shows how SentenceTransformers can be used for extractive summarization: Give a long document, find the k sentences that give a good and short summary of the content.
