MiniCPM-V 4.7

ModelBest released MiniCPM-V 4.7, its first mixture-of-experts multimodal model, in 35B-A3B and 1B sizes, with the MoE version running in about 3GB on an iPhone 17 Pro Max.

The 35B-A3B version is the first MoE model in the MiniCPM-V series and activates about 3 billion parameters per token. A new inference technique called lookahead expert scheduling (LES) lets it decode at over 13 tokens per second in about 3GB of memory on an iPhone 17 Pro Max, the company says. The 1B version improves on MiniCPM-V 4.6, and ModelBest also open-sourced Self-Replay Fine-Tuning (SRFT), a recipe for adding capabilities while limiting forgetting.
