Using GTR with contrastive learning but the weights are not updated.

Hi! I'm using sentence-transformers/gtr-t5-base as the base encoder with SimCSE on sentence transformers (this example) However, I looked at the dev score on the STS-B dev set, and there were no changes to the dev score. Here is an example: Screenshot 2024-03-23 at 1 25 39 PM

Here is the code that I use:

model_alls = ['sentence-transformers/gtr-t5-base']

max_seq_length = 512
num_epochs = 4
training_data = 'wiki1m_for_simcse.txt'
sts_dataset_path = 'stsbenchmark.tsv.gz'
pooling_mode = 'mean' # cls,max,mean
wiki_dataset = True

for model_now in model_alls:
        train_batch_size = 32
        learning_rate = 3e-5
        model_name = model_now

        model_save_path = f"output/Simcse_{model_name.replace('-','_').replace('/','_')}_Size_{output_size}"

        word_embedding_model = models.Transformer(model_name, max_seq_length=max_seq_length)
        pooling_model = models.Pooling(word_embedding_model.get_word_embedding_dimension(),pooling_mode=pooling_mode)
        model = SentenceTransformer(modules=[word_embedding_model, pooling_model])

        #Read STSbenchmark dataset and use it as development set
        logging.info("Read STSbenchmark dev dataset")
        dev_samples = []
        with gzip.open(sts_dataset_path, 'rt', encoding='utf8') as fIn:
            reader = csv.DictReader(fIn, delimiter='\t', quoting=csv.QUOTE_NONE)
            for row in reader:
                if row['split'] == 'dev':
                    score = float(row['score']) / 5.0 #Normalize score to range 0 ... 1
                    dev_samples.append(InputExample(texts=[row['sentence1'], row['sentence2']], label=score))

        dev_evaluator = EmbeddingSimilarityEvaluator.from_input_examples(dev_samples, batch_size=train_batch_size, name='sts-dev')

        train_data = []
        if wiki_dataset:
            print(f"Wiki dataset")
            train_sentences = open(training_data).readlines()
            train_data += [InputExample(texts=[s, s]) for s in train_sentences]

        train_dataloader = DataLoader(train_data, shuffle=True, batch_size=train_batch_size, drop_last=True)

        logging.info("Train sentences: {}".format(len(train_data)))

        # We train our model using the MultipleNegativesRankingLoss
        train_loss = losses.MultipleNegativesRankingLoss(model)

        evaluation_steps = 125 #Evaluate every 10% of the data
        warmup_steps = math.ceil(len(train_dataloader) * num_epochs * 0.1)  # 10% of train data for warm-up
        logging.info("Warmup-steps: {}".format(warmup_steps))

        # Train the model
        model.fit(train_objectives=[(train_dataloader, train_loss)],
                  epochs=num_epochs,
                  evaluator=dev_evaluator,
                  evaluation_steps=evaluation_steps,
                  warmup_steps=warmup_steps,
                  optimizer_params={'lr': learning_rate},
                  show_progress_bar=True,
                  output_path=model_save_path,
                  use_amp=True  # Set to True, if your GPU supports FP16 cores
                  )

Thank you in advance.
