SmolVLM-500M-Instruct — Q8_0 GGUF

Quantized HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM-500M-Instruct (Apache-2.0) as a Q8_0 GGUF + vision projector for llama.cpp inference. All credit for the model goes to the Hugging Face TB team.

Packaged for QtMeshEditor's local image-captioning feature (llama.cpp runs in-process; the model downloads on first use and runs offline).

The files QtMeshEditor downloads at runtime live in the shared fernandotonon/QtMeshEditor-models repo under caption/. This repo is the standalone model card + mirror.

Files

file	role
`SmolVLM-500M-Instruct-Q8_0.gguf`	language model, Q8_0 (~437 MB)
`mmproj-SmolVLM-500M-Instruct-Q8_0.gguf`	vision projector (~109 MB)

Use with llama.cpp's multimodal API (load the mmproj alongside the LM, e.g. llama-mtmd-cli -m SmolVLM-500M-Instruct-Q8_0.gguf --mmproj mmproj-SmolVLM-500M-Instruct-Q8_0.gguf).
