# EdgeCrafter: Compact ViTs for Edge Dense Prediction
|
| 10 |
+
|
| 11 |
+
EdgeCrafter is a unified compact Vision Transformer (ViT) framework for edge dense prediction, introduced in the paper [EdgeCrafter: Compact ViTs for Edge Dense Prediction via Task-Specialized Distillation](https://huggingface.co/papers/2603.18739).
|
| 12 |
+
|
| 13 |
+
This repository contains a pose estimation model (**ECPose**) optimized for high performance on resource-constrained edge devices.

## Overview
|
| 19 |
+
|
| 20 |
+
EdgeCrafter addresses the performance gap between compact ViTs and traditional CNN-based architectures (like YOLO) on edge hardware. It introduces a task-specialized distillation approach and edge-friendly encoder-decoder designs.
|
| 21 |
+
|
| 22 |
+
The **ECPose** family focuses on human pose estimation. For example, ECPose-X reaches 74.8 AP on the COCO dataset, significantly outperforming lightweight CNN-based models while maintaining efficiency for real-time edge deployment.

## Usage
|
| 25 |
+
|
| 26 |
+
This model has been pushed to the Hub using the [PytorchModelHubMixin](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/package_reference/mixins#huggingface_hub.PyTorchModelHubMixin) integration. For inference and training instructions, please refer to the [official GitHub repository](https://github.com/Intellindust-AI-Lab/EdgeCrafter).
