File	Format	Size	Top-1 acc	Use
`invoice_classifier_fp32.onnx`	ONNX, fp32	~5.8 MB	98.35%	Ship this.
`invoice_classifier_int8_qdq.onnx`	ONNX, QDQ static int8	~1.7 MB	58.85%	⚠️ Experimental — see Quantization notes.

TL;DR — use the fp32 model. It's only ~6 MB, runs in well under 100 ms per image on modern phone CPUs, and has no accuracy drop. The int8 build is included for reference but is not recommended for deployment (details below).

Model details

Architecture: MobileNetV3-Small (torchvision mobilenet_v3_small), ImageNet-1k pretrained backbone, final 1000-class head replaced with a 3-class linear layer.
Parameters: ~1.5 M.
Input: 1 × 3 × 224 × 224, float32, NCHW, ImageNet-normalized.
Output: logits — 1 × 3 unnormalized scores. Apply softmax to get per-class confidence.
Class index order (alphabetical, must match labels.json):
```
0  bank_statement
1  invoice
2  other
```
Opset: 18.

Intended use

Triage classifier deciding whether a page is worth running invoice / statement extraction on.
Lightweight client-side filtering before backend OCR.

Out of scope

Not an OCR model — does not extract text, totals, dates, or account numbers.
Not a fraud / authenticity detector.
Not a layout analyzer — looks at the page as a whole.
Anything outside {bank_statement, invoice} collapses into other. The model does not distinguish sub-types of other (receipts vs IDs vs photos).

How to use

python

import json
import numpy as np
import onnxruntime as ort
from PIL import Image

session = ort.InferenceSession("invoice_classifier_fp32.onnx")
labels = json.load(open("labels.json"))
mean = np.array([0.485, 0.456, 0.406], dtype=np.float32).reshape(3, 1, 1)
std  = np.array([0.229, 0.224, 0.225], dtype=np.float32).reshape(3, 1, 1)

img = Image.open("page.jpg").convert("RGB").resize((256, 256))
left = (256 - 224) // 2
img = img.crop((left, left, left + 224, left + 224))
x = np.asarray(img, dtype=np.float32).transpose(2, 0, 1) / 255.0
x = ((x - mean) / std)[None].astype(np.float32)

logits = session.run(["logits"], {"input": x})[0][0]
probs = np.exp(logits - logits.max())
probs /= probs.sum()
print(labels[int(probs.argmax())], float(probs.max()))

Preprocessing

Step	Value
Resize	shorter edge → 256
Crop	center crop to 224 × 224
Color	RGB
Scale	divide by 255
Normalize mean	`[0.485, 0.456, 0.406]`
Normalize std	`[0.229, 0.224, 0.225]`
Layout	NCHW
Dtype	float32

Standard ImageNet stats — also captured in preprocess.json for programmatic loading.

Training

Backbone weights: torchvision MobileNet_V3_Small_Weights.IMAGENET1K_V1.
Head: replaced with nn.Linear(in, 3).
Optimizer: AdamW, weight decay 1 × 10⁻⁴.
Schedule: cosine annealing across all epochs.
Stage 1: backbone frozen for 2 epochs, only the new head trains (lr = 3 × 10⁻⁴).
Stage 2: backbone unfrozen at lr / 10, head stays at base lr (discriminative learning rates).
Loss: CrossEntropyLoss with inverse-frequency class weights and label smoothing 0.05.
Augmentation: Resize(256) → RandomResizedCrop(224, scale 0.7–1.0) → ColorJitter (brightness/contrast/saturation/hue) → small RandomRotation → occasional grayscale → ImageNet normalize.
Best checkpoint: selected by validation accuracy.

Evaluation

Held-out test set: 243 images across the three classes.

int8 (QDQ) — not recommended

Metric	Value
Top-1 accuracy	58.85%
Macro F1	0.4517
Top-1 disagreement vs fp32	40.74% (99/243)

Best result observed across MinMax / Entropy / Percentile calibration × per-channel / per-tensor weights. All configurations produce a similar collapse (45–58% accuracy).

Quantization notes

Post-training static quantization of MobileNetV3-Small is a known-difficult problem. The architecture's Hardswish activations and Squeeze-and-Excitation blocks produce activation distributions with extreme outliers that don't fit cleanly into INT8 scales. PTQ — regardless of QDQ vs QOperator format, calibration method, or per-channel vs per-tensor — accumulates enough error across ~140 tensors to collapse one or more classes.

If you need a smaller model, in increasing order of effort:

FP16 — usually within rounding error of fp32. Simplest path to ~3 MB.
Quantization-aware training (QAT) — torchvision provides models.quantization.mobilenet_v3_small. Requires a retraining run but typically lands within 1–2 points of fp32.
Switch architectures — MobileNetV2, EfficientNet-Lite0, or a small ConvNeXt variant all post-train-quantize more reliably than MNV3.

The shipped int8 file is left in this repo only as evidence of the failure mode, not as a deployable artifact.

Why QDQ format anyway? ONNX Runtime Mobile does not include ConvInteger / MatMulInteger operators. A model quantized with QuantFormat.QOperator or quantize_dynamic will load on desktop ORT and then fail at runtime on mobile with code=9 (NOT_IMPLEMENTED). QDQ keeps standard Conv / MatMul nodes surrounded by QuantizeLinear / DequantizeLinear, which is the path ORT Mobile executes. So if you do produce a working int8 build (e.g. via QAT), export it as QDQ.

Limitations and bias

Domain bias toward English-language, Western-format documents. Performance on non-Latin scripts, right-to-left layouts, and regional statement / invoice formats has not been systematically measured.
Photo conditions matter. Heavy glare, motion blur, extreme skew (>~15°), or occlusion shifts predictions toward other.
other is an open set. Its decision boundary is determined entirely by the contents of the training data's other/ folder. Receipts, IDs, screenshots, and shipping labels were included; any class not seen in training may be classified inconsistently.
No PII handling. Documents are processed as opaque pixels; the model does not redact or filter sensitive fields.
