WWW: https://www.sbert.net/ https://github.com/UKPLab/sentence-transformers/ Description: # This framework provides an easy method to compute embeddings for accessing,
using, and training state-of-the-art embedding and reranker models. It can be
used to compute embeddings using Sentence Transformer models (quickstart), to
calculate similarity scores using Cross-Encoder (a.k.a. reranker) models
(quickstart) or to generate sparse embeddings using Sparse Encoder models
(quickstart).
This unlocks a wide range of applications, including semantic search, semantic
textual similarity, and paraphrase mining. ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦

With both math/py-numpy (2) and math/py-numpy1, the variable stopped
making sense. Also remove the upper version bound.
