+    An embedding function that uses the InstructorEmbedding library. Instructor models support multi-task learning, and can be used for a

+    If you want to calculate customized embeddings for specific sentences, you may follow the unified template to write instructions:
+        "Represent the `domain` `text_type` for `task_objective`":
+
+        * domain is optional, and it specifies the domain of the text, e.g., science, finance, medicine, etc.

+        * task_objective is optional, and it specifies the objective of embedding, e.g., retrieve a document, classify the sentence, etc.
