This is based on the implementation of NASNet found [here](https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-image-models/tree/main). 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/main/qai_hub_models/models/nasnet) 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. ## 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 | |---|---|---|---|---| | ONNX | float | Universal | QAIRT 2.42, ONNX Runtime 1.24.1 | [Download](https://qaihub-public-assets.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/qai-hub-models/models/nasnet/releases/v0.48.0/nasnet-onnx-float.zip) | ONNX | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Universal | QAIRT 2.42, ONNX Runtime 1.24.1 | [Download](https://qaihub-public-assets.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/qai-hub-models/models/nasnet/releases/v0.48.0/nasnet-onnx-w8a8_mixed_fp16.zip) | QNN_DLC | float | Universal | QAIRT 2.43 | [Download](https://qaihub-public-assets.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/qai-hub-models/models/nasnet/releases/v0.48.0/nasnet-qnn_dlc-float.zip) | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Universal | QAIRT 2.43 | [Download](https://qaihub-public-assets.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/qai-hub-models/models/nasnet/releases/v0.48.0/nasnet-qnn_dlc-w8a8_mixed_fp16.zip) | TFLITE | float | Universal | QAIRT 2.43, TFLite 2.17.0 | [Download](https://qaihub-public-assets.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/qai-hub-models/models/nasnet/releases/v0.48.0/nasnet-tflite-float.zip) For more device-specific assets and performance metrics, visit **[NASNet on Qualcomm® AI Hub](https://aihub.qualcomm.com/models/nasnet)**. ### Option 2: Export with Custom Configurations Use the [Qualcomm® AI Hub Models](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models/blob/main/qai_hub_models/models/nasnet) 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 [NASNet on GitHub](https://github.com/qualcomm/ai-hub-models/blob/main/qai_hub_models/models/nasnet) for usage instructions. ## Model Details **Model Type:** Model_use_case.image_classification **Model Stats:** - Model checkpoint: nasnetalarge.tf_in1k - Input resolution: 224x224 - GMACs: 5.9 - Activations (M): 19.4 - Number of parameters: 88.7M - Model size (float): 338 MB ## Performance Summary | Model | Runtime | Precision | Chipset | Inference Time (ms) | Peak Memory Range (MB) | Primary Compute Unit |---|---|---|---|---|---|--- | NASNet | ONNX | float | Snapdragon® X2 Elite | 8.215 ms | 189 - 189 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | float | Snapdragon® X Elite | 17.826 ms | 188 - 188 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | float | Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile | 12.748 ms | 0 - 831 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | float | Qualcomm® QCS8550 (Proxy) | 17.461 ms | 0 - 196 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | float | Qualcomm® QCS9075 | 28.336 ms | 0 - 4 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | float | Snapdragon® 8 Elite For Galaxy Mobile | 10.601 ms | 1 - 676 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | float | Snapdragon® 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile | 8.389 ms | 1 - 673 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® X2 Elite | 4.546 ms | 100 - 100 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® X Elite | 11.742 ms | 98 - 98 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile | 6.989 ms | 5 - 481 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Qualcomm® QCS8550 (Proxy) | 9.916 ms | 5 - 11 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Qualcomm® QCS9075 | 11.712 ms | 5 - 8 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® 8 Elite For Galaxy Mobile | 5.62 ms | 0 - 346 MB | NPU | NASNet | ONNX | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile | 4.568 ms | 5 - 359 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Snapdragon® X2 Elite | 9.24 ms | 1 - 1 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Snapdragon® X Elite | 19.234 ms | 1 - 1 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile | 12.326 ms | 0 - 814 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Qualcomm® QCS8275 (Proxy) | 54.016 ms | 1 - 659 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Qualcomm® QCS8550 (Proxy) | 19.0 ms | 1 - 3 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Qualcomm® QCS9075 | 28.724 ms | 1 - 3 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Qualcomm® QCS8450 (Proxy) | 35.267 ms | 0 - 792 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Snapdragon® 8 Elite For Galaxy Mobile | 11.072 ms | 1 - 652 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | float | Snapdragon® 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile | 8.904 ms | 1 - 654 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® X2 Elite | 4.134 ms | 0 - 0 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® X Elite | 9.236 ms | 0 - 0 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile | 5.992 ms | 0 - 495 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Qualcomm® QCS8275 (Proxy) | 16.472 ms | 0 - 378 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Qualcomm® QCS8550 (Proxy) | 8.936 ms | 0 - 2 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Qualcomm® QCS9075 | 9.454 ms | 0 - 2 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Qualcomm® QCS8450 (Proxy) | 11.194 ms | 0 - 507 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® 8 Elite For Galaxy Mobile | 4.926 ms | 0 - 377 MB | NPU | NASNet | QNN_DLC | w8a8_mixed_fp16 | Snapdragon® 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile | 3.895 ms | 0 - 378 MB | NPU | NASNet | TFLITE | float | Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile | 8.796 ms | 0 - 783 MB | NPU | NASNet | TFLITE | float | Qualcomm® QCS8275 (Proxy) | 44.427 ms | 0 - 628 MB | NPU | NASNet | TFLITE | float | Qualcomm® QCS8550 (Proxy) | 12.456 ms | 0 - 3 MB | NPU | NASNet | TFLITE | float | Qualcomm® QCS9075 | 15.469 ms | 0 - 192 MB | NPU | NASNet | TFLITE | float | Qualcomm® QCS8450 (Proxy) | 28.855 ms | 0 - 762 MB | NPU | NASNet | TFLITE | float | Snapdragon® 8 Elite For Galaxy Mobile | 6.956 ms | 0 - 623 MB | NPU | NASNet | TFLITE | float | Snapdragon® 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile | 5.632 ms | 0 - 625 MB | NPU ## License * The license for the original implementation of NASNet can be found [here](https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-image-models?tab=Apache-2.0-1-ov-file). ## References * [Learning Transferable Architectures for Scalable Image Recognition](https://arxiv.org/abs/1707.07012) * [Source Model Implementation](https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-image-models/tree/main) ## Community * Join [our AI Hub Slack community](https://aihub.qualcomm.com/community/slack) to collaborate, post questions and learn more about on-device AI. * For questions or feedback please [reach out to us](mailto:ai-hub-support@qti.qualcomm.com).
