Answers

Mobile V-MoEs — common questions

01

Mobile V-MoEs— what is it used for?

It works in the domain of Vision, and is recorded as handling the task of image classification. A model can carry several of each, so these are the areas it was built for rather than a limit on what it will attempt.

02

Mobile V-MoEs— what GPU do I need to run it?

None. This is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.

03

Mobile V-MoEs— is it open source?

No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.

04

Mobile V-MoEs— how many parameters does it have?

No parameter count has been published for it, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.

05

Mobile V-MoEs— who created it?

It was published by Apple, based in United States of America, an organisation categorised as industry.

06

Mobile V-MoEs— when was it released?

It was published in September 2023. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

The other direction

Looking at it from the other side?

This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
