Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct: Optimized for Qualcomm Devices

Qwen3-VL is a vision-language model from Alibaba Cloud capable of understanding both text and images for multimodal reasoning tasks such as visual question answering and image captioning.

This is based on the implementation of Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct found here. This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found here.

Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. Sign up to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.

Deploying Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct on-device

Follow the GenieX quickstart to install GenieX and deploy the model on a target device.

See the LLM-on-Genie tutorial to run with the Genie runtime. Note: Genie support will be deprecated soon.

Getting Started

There are two ways to deploy this model on your device:

Option 2: Export with Custom Configurations

Use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models 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 Qwen3-VL-4B-Instruct on GitHub for usage instructions.

Model Details

Model Type: Model_use_case.text_generation

Model Stats:

Model architecture: Transformer with ViT Vision Encoder, Grouped Query Attention (GQA), and SwiGLU activation.
Response Rate: Rate of response generation after the first response token.
Supported languages: 100+ languages and dialects
TTFT: Time To First Token is the time it takes to generate the first response token. This is expressed as a range because it varies based on the length of the prompt.
