Update sentence-transformers requirement from ~=3.3.1 to ~=3.4.0

[dependabot]

Updates the requirements on sentence-transformers to permit the latest version.

Release notes

Sourced from sentence-transformers's releases.

v3.4.0 - Resolved memory leak when deleting a model & trainer; add Matryoshka & Cached loss compatibility; small features & bug fixes

This release resolves a memory leak when deleting a model & trainer, adds compatibility between the Cached... losses and the Matryoshka loss modifier, resolves numerous bugs, and adds several small features.

Install this version with

# Training + Inference
pip install sentence-transformers[train]==3.4.0
Inference only, use one of:
pip install sentence-transformers==3.4.0
pip install sentence-transformers[onnx-gpu]==3.4.0
pip install sentence-transformers[onnx]==3.4.0
pip install sentence-transformers[openvino]==3.4.0

Matryoshka & Cached loss compatibility (#3068, #3107)

It is now possible to combine the strong Cached losses (CachedMultipleNegativesRankingLoss, CachedGISTEmbedLoss, CachedMultipleNegativesSymmetricRankingLoss) with the Matryoshka loss modifier:

from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer, SentenceTransformerTrainer, losses
from datasets import Dataset
model = SentenceTransformer("microsoft/mpnet-base")
train_dataset = Dataset.from_dict({
"anchor": ["It's nice weather outside today.", "He drove to work."],
"positive": ["It's so sunny.", "He took the car to the office."],
})
loss = losses.CachedMultipleNegativesRankingLoss(model, mini_batch_size=16)
loss = losses.MatryoshkaLoss(model, loss, [768, 512, 256, 128, 64])
trainer = SentenceTransformerTrainer(
model=model,
train_dataset=train_dataset,
loss=loss,
)
trainer.train()

See for example tomaarsen/mpnet-base-gooaq-cmnrl-mrl which was trained with CachedMultipleNegativesRankingLoss (CMNRL) with the Matryoshka loss modifier (MRL).

Resolve memory leak when Model and Trainer are reinitialized (#3144)

Due to a circular dependency in the SentenceTransformerTrainer -> SentenceTransformer -> SentenceTransformerModelCardData -> SentenceTransformerTrainer, deleting the trainer and model still doesn't clear them up via garbage disposal. I've moved a lot of components around, and now SentenceTransformerModelCardData does not need to store the SentenceTransformerTrainer, breaking the cycle.

We ran the seed optimization script (which frequently creates and deletes models and trainers):

• Before: Approximate highest recorded VRAM:

  16332MiB /  24576MiB
  

• After: Approximate highest recorded VRAM:

🪧 Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
  • Generate unit testing code for this file.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
  • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
