# 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](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct).
This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the [Qualcomm® AI Hub Models](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models/blob/v0.66.0/src/qai_hub_models/models/smolvlm2_2_2b_instruct) library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found [here](#performance-summary).
Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses [Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench](https://workbench.aihub.qualcomm.com) to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. [Sign up](https://myaccount.qualcomm.com/signup) to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.
## Deploying SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct on-device
Follow the [GenieX quickstart](https://geniex.aihub.qualcomm.com/en/get-started/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](https://huggingface.co/ggml-org/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct-GGUF/resolve/main/SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct-Q8_0.gguf)
For more device-specific assets and performance metrics, visit **[SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct on Qualcomm® AI Hub](https://aihub.qualcomm.com/models/smolvlm2_2_2b_instruct)**.
### Option 2: Export with Custom Configurations
Use the [Qualcomm® AI Hub Models](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models/blob/v0.66.0/src/qai_hub_models/models/smolvlm2_2_2b_instruct) Python library to compile and export the model with your own:
- Custom weights (e.g., fine-tuned checkpoints)
- Custom input shapes
- Target device and runtime configurations
This option is ideal if you need to customize the model beyond the default configuration provided here.
See our repository for [SmolVLM2-2.2B-Instruct on GitHub](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models/blob/v0.66.0/src/qai_hub_models/models/smolvlm2_2_2b_instruct) for usage instructions.
