# RF-DETR Seg-XLarge — GGUF for rfdetr.cpp
GGUF-format weights of [Roboflow RF-DETR Seg-XLarge](https://github.com/roboflow/rf-detr) (segmentation variant) for use with [rfdetr.cpp](https://github.com/mudler/rf-detr.cpp), a C++/ggml implementation that matches the upstream PyTorch model on CPU.
This repo contains all four standard quantizations of this variant. **F16 is the recommended default** — same accuracy as F32, 1.85× smaller, and typically the fastest on modern CPUs thanks to ggml's F32×F16 matmul fast path.
## Available files
| File | Quant | Size (MB) |
|---|---|---:|
| `rfdetr-seg-xlarge-f32.gguf` | F32 | 148.2 |
| `rfdetr-seg-xlarge-f16.gguf` ← **recommended** | F16 | 80.1 |
| `rfdetr-seg-xlarge-q8_0.gguf` | Q8_0 | 48.2 |
| `rfdetr-seg-xlarge-q4_K.gguf` | Q4_K | 38.3 |
> Accuracy + latency for this variant haven't been added to the [BENCHMARK.md](https://github.com/mudler/rf-detr.cpp/blob/main/BENCHMARK.md) sweep yet; the C++ implementation is verified to load and run `rfdetr-cli detect` end-to-end on every quant. Run `scripts/sweep_accuracy.py --variant seg-xlarge` locally for parity numbers.
All accuracy numbers are computed against the upstream PyTorch reference (`rfdetr 1.7.0`) on 7 COCO val2017 images at threshold 0.5. Latency is measured with `rfdetr-cli bench` (8 iters + 3 warmup) at T=8 threads on a single AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D image (`coco_kitchen.jpg`, 640x427).
## Architecture
- Backbone: DINOv2-small
- Input resolution: 624×624
- Patch size: 12
- Decoder layers: 6
- Object queries: 300
- Task: instance segmentation (boxes + per-query masks)
- Mask resolution: 156×156 per query (image_size / 4)
## Quantization notes
- **F32** — full-precision reference, ~120 MB. Bit-exact PyTorch parity.
- **F16** — matmul-multiplicand weights only; LayerNorms, conv kernels, embeddings, biases, and layer-scale gammas stay F32. Lossless on this model and consistently the fastest variant on CPU.
- **Q8_0** — best size/accuracy tradeoff under F16; ~3× smaller than F32 with effectively identical detections.
- **Q4_K** — smallest practical quant. Rows with `ne[0] % 256 != 0` (the decoder's 128-dim MLP halves, 60 tensors) silently fall back to Q8_0 per ggml's quantizer logic — net compression is still ~3.8× over F32. Use only when the size budget is tight; expect a measurable Recall@0.95 drop relative to F16/Q8_0 (see file table above).
## Usage
```bash
# 1. Clone + build rfdetr.cpp
git clone https://github.com/mudler/rf-detr.cpp
cd rt-detr.cpp
cmake -B build -DRFDETR_BUILD_CLI=ON && cmake --build build -j
# 2. Download a quant (F16 recommended)
hf download mudler/rfdetr-cpp-seg-xlarge rfdetr-seg-xlarge-f16.gguf --local-dir models/
# 3. Run segmentation (writes per-detection PNG masks to /tmp/seg_masks/)
build/bin/rfdetr-cli detect \
--model models/rfdetr-seg-xlarge-f16.gguf \
--input my_image.jpg \
--threshold 0.5 --threads 8 \
--masks /tmp/seg_masks \
--output detections.json
```
## Accuracy methodology
All accuracy metrics are computed against the upstream PyTorch reference (rfdetr 1.7.0) on 7 COCO val2017 images at threshold 0.5. Each detection match uses greedy Hungarian-style assignment by IoU (≥ 0.5 lenient, ≥ 0.95 strict) with class equality required.
Mask metrics are pixel-wise IoU between binary masks at the **original** image resolution (not the network's working resolution), after sigmoid + bicubic upsample of the per-query mask logits. **Pixel agreement** is the fraction of pixels where the C++ and PyTorch binary masks match.
See [BENCHMARK.md](https://github.com/mudler/rf-detr.cpp/blob/main/BENCHMARK.md) and [`benchmarks/results/accuracy_sweep.json`](https://github.com/mudler/rf-detr.cpp/blob/main/benchmarks/results/accuracy_sweep.json) for the full sweep across the (variant × quant) cells.
