| # Unlimited-OCR 8-bit MLX | |
| This is an 8-bit affine MLX quantization of [`mikoy92/Unlimited-OCR-bf16-mlx`](https://huggingface.co/mikoy92/Unlimited-OCR-bf16-mlx), converted with `mlx-vlm`. | |
| Quantization settings: | |
| - mode: `affine` | |
| - bits: `8` | |
| - group size: `64` | |
| - observed effective bits per weight during conversion: `9.408` | |
| Because this is a vision-language OCR model, `mlx-vlm` does not aggressively quantize every multimodal tensor; the effective bits-per-weight can be higher than exactly 8-bit. | |
| ## Usage | |
| ```bash | |
| pip install -U mlx-vlm | |
| mlx_vlm.generate \ | |
| --model mikoy92/Unlimited-OCR-8bit-mlx \ | |
| --image /path/to/image.png \ | |
| --prompt "Extract all readable text from this image." \ | |
| --max-tokens 512 \ | |
| --temperature 0 | |
| ``` | |
| ## Validation | |
| Before upload, this checkpoint was loaded locally with `mlx_vlm.generate` and produced OCR text/table output on a document-image smoke test. | |
