SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct: Optimized for Qualcomm Devices

SmolVLM2 is a lightweight vision-language model from Hugging Face capable of understanding text and images for tasks such as visual question answering, image captioning, and optical character recognition.

This is based on the implementation of SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct found here. This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found here.

Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. Sign up to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.

Deploying SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct on-device

Follow the GenieX quickstart to install GenieX and deploy the model on a target device.

Getting Started

There are two ways to deploy this model on your device:

Option 1: Download Pre-Exported Models

Below are pre-exported model assets ready for deployment.

Runtime Precision Chipset SDK Versions Download
GENIEX_LLAMACPP q8_0 Universal Download

For more device-specific assets and performance metrics, visit SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct on Qualcomm® AI Hub.

Option 2: Export with Custom Configurations
