Include a tag for mobile-compatible models.
👋 Greetings! Am not sure if this is the correct place to file an issue for huggingface.co, but figured I'd try anyway. :)
Issue Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Would it be possible to include models that are mobile-compatible as a filterable category in the Other section on the Hugging Face website? Meaning .tflite, .ptl for PyTorch, or CoreML models for iOS devices.
Additional context
In competitors' hubs, models of varying sizes are colocated on a single page (example below) - so you might see the base example, a Colab notebook to test out the model interactively, and a TF Lite implementation. You can also sort and filter based on model type, as well as framework version and fine-tunability (though HuggingFace's models would win that contest every time 😃 ).
:wave: Greetings! You came to the right place!
:thinking: we do have existing filters in "Libraries" when you click the +24, and TF Lite is actually one of the options over there https://huggingface.co/models?library=tflite&sort=downloads. Is that something similar to what you had in mind, but with additional file types?
@osanseviero : Yes, that would be perfect! Something that would let users know that if they need to deploy the model to an environment that isn't a laptop, or on a server, that they would be able to do so without finagling the quantization process themselves.
And I love the work that @merveenoyan did to expand the filters for libraries! 😄
This is interesting. We've had discussions about increasing the number of models for mobile/edge devices. I think once we increase the number of models, adding a filter would definitively make sense.
cc @julien-c @gary149 WDYT?
If we think it's important to easily filter/distinct mobile compatible models (no strong opinion on it), I understand @dynamicwebpaige point that it's more straightforward to have a "mobile ready" tag into the "others" section than having to expand/search in sub-sections.
