SAM ViT-B (12 layers, 768d) — image encoder with windowed + global attention
CLIP-L/14 (24 layers, 1024d) — receives SAM features as patch embeddings (dual-encoder "DeepLIP")
Fusion — concat CLIP + SAM features (2048d) → linear projection (1280d)
DeepSeek-V2 MoE decoder (12 layers, 1280d, 64 routed experts top-6, 2 shared experts, layer 0 dense)
Tokenizer — GPT-2 BPE, 129,280 vocab

Files

File	Quant	Size	Notes
`unlimited-ocr-f16.gguf`	F16	6.4 GB	Full precision, reference quality
`unlimited-ocr-q8_0.gguf`	Q8_0	3.5 GB	High quality, 2x compression
`unlimited-ocr-q5_k.gguf`	Q5_K	2.4 GB	Best quantized quality (near-perfect pages)
`unlimited-ocr-q4_k.gguf`	Q4_K	2.2 GB	Recommended — reads full pages, matches the HF model
`unlimited-ocr-q3_k.gguf`	Q3_K	2.0 GB	Smaller; very good (slightly more char errors)

All quantizations preserve the vision encoder (SAM v.* + CLIP c.*), the MoE router (*.mlp_gate.weight), the projector, the token embeddings, and the lm_head at Q8_0 minimum. Keeping the lm_head at Q8_0 is essential: at Q4_K the output projection flips a borderline greedy pick early in generation, which snowballs into a hallucination — the full-page OCR fails. With it protected, the q4_k file reads full document pages identically to the unquantized HF model.

Quality vs size (the protected Q8_0 tensors dominate, so smaller quants save little): q5_k ≈ best, q4_k (this file) excellent, q3_k good, q2_k not recommended (its 2-bit experts collapse into repetition on dense body text).

Upstream model: baidu/Unlimited-OCR — published by baidu.
Upstream licence: mit. This repository redistributes under the same terms; it grants no rights the upstream licence does not.
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. No training-content summary was found on the upstream model card at the time of writing; that documentation gap is upstream's and is not filled here.
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. Questions about training content, copyright policy or model capability belong upstream.
