# M2-Encoder 0.4B Demo

This Space runs `malusama/M2-Encoder-0.4B` on Hugging Face Spaces `CPU Basic`.

What it does:

- Upload one image
- Enter candidate labels in Chinese or English
- Return raw similarity scores and softmax probabilities

Notes:

- The first request after startup can be slow because the model must load on CPU.
- This demo is intended for low-frequency testing rather than production traffic.
