Enhance Language and Code Retrieval with ModernBERT Base

In the ever-evolving landscape of natural language processing, the ability to efficiently retrieve and classify information from vast datasets is crucial. The ModernBERT Base model stands out as a powerful tool designed for this very purpose. Leveraging advanced techniques such as Rotary Positional Embeddings and Local-Global Alternating Attention, this model can process long contexts with remarkable efficiency. With pre-training on a staggering 2 trillion tokens encompassing both English language and code, it excels in retrieval, classification, and semantic search tasks. Developers can harness the capabilities of ModernBERT Base to simplify complex queries, enhance search functionalities, and improve overall application responsiveness.

Prerequisites

To get started with the ModernBERT Base actions, you'll need a valid Cognitive Actions API key and a basic understanding of making API calls.

Perform Language and Code Retrieval with ModernBERT

The "Perform Language and Code Retrieval with ModernBERT" action allows developers to utilize the capabilities of the ModernBERT-base model for tasks that require the prediction of masked words in a given context. This action is particularly beneficial for applications that involve semantic search and code-related queries.

Input Requirements

The input for this action requires a JSON object containing a "prompt" string. This string should include a sentence with a MASK token, which indicates where the model needs to predict and fill in the missing word. For example, a valid input could be: "Replicate lets you run machine learning [MASK] with a cloud API."

Expected Output

Upon providing the appropriate input, the action will return a predicted word that fills in the MASK token. For instance, the output for the example input above would be "applications".

Use Cases for this specific action

• Natural Language Understanding: Developers can integrate this action into applications that require understanding and generating responses based on user input, making the interaction more intuitive.
• Code Assistance Tools: This action is ideal for tools that assist developers by predicting code snippets or suggesting completions, enhancing productivity during coding sessions.
• Search Functionality: By implementing this action, applications can improve their search capabilities, allowing users to find relevant content more effectively by predicting user queries.

import requests
import json

# Replace with your actual Cognitive Actions API key and endpoint
# Ensure your environment securely handles the API key
COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY = "YOUR_COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY"
# This endpoint URL is hypothetical and should be documented for users
COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_EXECUTE_URL = "https://api.cognitiveactions.com/actions/execute"

action_id = "8353481a-6901-4d84-81fa-5e4816e44d3b" # Action ID for: Perform Language and Code Retrieval with ModernBERT

# Construct the exact input payload based on the action's requirements
# This example uses the predefined example_input for this action:
payload = {
  "prompt": "Replicate lets you run machine learning [MASK] with a cloud API."
}

headers = {
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY}",
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    # Add any other required headers for the Cognitive Actions API
}

# Prepare the request body for the hypothetical execution endpoint
request_body = {
    "action_id": action_id,
    "inputs": payload
}

print(f"--- Calling Cognitive Action: {action.name or action_id} ---")
print(f"Endpoint: {COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_EXECUTE_URL}")
print(f"Action ID: {action_id}")
print("Payload being sent:")
print(json.dumps(request_body, indent=2))
print("------------------------------------------------")

try:
    response = requests.post(
        COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_EXECUTE_URL,
        headers=headers,
        json=request_body
    )
    response.raise_for_status() # Raise an exception for bad status codes (4xx or 5xx)

    result = response.json()
    print("Action executed successfully. Result:")
    print(json.dumps(result, indent=2))

except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
    print(f"Error executing action {action_id}: {e}")
    if e.response is not None:
        print(f"Response status: {e.response.status_code}")
        try:
            print(f"Response body: {e.response.json()}")
        except json.JSONDecodeError:
            print(f"Response body (non-JSON): {e.response.text}")
    print("------------------------------------------------")
