Nils Reimers leads machine-learning work at Cohere, where he develops and trains large language models for semantic search and few-shot text classification. He previously built Hugging Face’s Neural Search research team and created and maintains Sentence Transformers, an open-source library for text embeddings. His research also includes methods for neural retrieval without labeled training data.
Director of Machine Learning / Principal Scientist
I'm leading the team that develops & trains Large Language Model (up to 100B+ parameters) for semantic search and few-shot text classification. Our goal is to develop foundation models that can create rich content representations for many use-cases & tasks.
Research Scientist
I build the Neural Search research team at HuggingFace from scratch. We developed methods that allow to use Neural Search without the need of labeled training data. I'm the creator and core maintainer of sentence-transformers .
