LMSupply.Reranker 0.34.20

LMSupply.Reranker

Local semantic reranking for .NET with cross-encoder models.

Features

• Zero-config: Models download automatically from HuggingFace
• GPU Acceleration: CUDA, DirectML (Windows), CoreML (macOS)
• Cross-platform: Windows, Linux, macOS
• RAG Integration: Perfect for improving retrieval quality
• Multi-Tokenizer Support: Automatic detection of WordPiece, Unigram, BPE tokenizers

Quick Start

using LMSupply.Reranker;

// Load the default model
await using var reranker = await LocalReranker.LoadAsync("default");

// Rerank documents
var results = await reranker.RerankAsync(
 query: "What is machine learning?",
 documents: ["ML is a branch of AI...", "The weather is nice..."],
 topK: 5);

foreach (var result in results)
 Console.WriteLine($"{result.Index}: {result.Score:F3}");

Available Models

Tokenizer Auto-Detection

The reranker automatically detects the correct tokenizer type:

This ensures compatibility with virtually any cross-encoder model from HuggingFace.

GPU Acceleration

# NVIDIA GPU
dotnet add package Microsoft.ML.OnnxRuntime.Gpu

# Windows (AMD/Intel/NVIDIA)
dotnet add package Microsoft.ML.OnnxRuntime.DirectML

Configuration

var options = new RerankerOptions
{
 Provider = ExecutionProvider.Auto, // GPU auto-detection
 MaxSequenceLength = 512,
 BatchSize = 32
};

var reranker = await LocalReranker.LoadAsync("default", options);
