GGUF conversions of btrkeks/transcoda-59M-zeroshot-v1 for the dependency-free C/C++ CrispEmbed inference engine (ggml; CPU / Metal / CUDA / Vulkan).

End-to-end zero-shot Optical Music Recognition: a full-page score image → **kern (Humdrum) symbolic transcription. ConvNeXt-V2-Tiny encoder + 8-layer RoPE cross-attention Transformer decoder, 58.8 M parameters. OMR-NED SOTA on real historical scans.

File	Size	Notes
`transcoda-f32.gguf`	224 MB	Full precision (reference).
`transcoda-q8_0.gguf`	65 MB	8-bit; conv2d kernels kept F32. Decode byte-identical to the reference on the validation page.

Usage

The engine reproduces the reference preprocessing (resize to width 1050 preserving aspect, top-crop / white-pad to height 1485, normalize to [-1, 1]) and greedy decode (repetition_penalty=1.1) internally. Grammar-constrained / beam decoding from the original project are not (yet) part of this engine.

Provenance & validation

Converted with models/convert-transcoda-to-gguf.py. The CrispEmbed engine (src/transcoda_ocr.cpp) is a clean-room implementation written from the paper, the model's config/data files, and a reference-activation oracle — it does not copy the AGPL reference code. Per-stage cosine vs the reference is 1.000000 at F32 (all encoder + decoder stages, CPU and Metal); the greedy **kern output is byte-identical to the reference on the validation page.

What was done here: format conversion and/or quantisation only (GGUF). No training, no fine-tuning, no merging, no distillation, no change to architecture, vocabulary or capability. Only the numeric representation of the upstream weights differs.
Training data: documented — where it is documented at all — by the upstream provider; see the upstream model card. No training data was used, added or selected by this repository.
Provider status: under Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 the upstream authors remain the provider of this model. Converting the serialisation format does not make this repository the provider of a new general-purpose AI model, and no such claim is made.
