Latest hf-mem release added a breakdown of Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) memory usage!

TL; DR MoEs can be misleading to reason about from active parameters alone, since each token only activates a subset of experts, while the serving setup still needs to account for the full resident memory footprint.

🧠 hf-mem now splits MoE memory into base model weights, routed experts, and KV cache
🏗️ Dense models usually load and use most weights every forward pass, while MoEs load many experts but only route each token to a few of them
⚡ Active params isn't the same as memory footprint, especially for sparse architectures
📦 Runtime memory is about what is used per request/token, while loading memory also includes the expert weights that need to be resident
📚 KV cache can still dominate depending on context length, batch size, and concurrency
🔀 Expert Parallelism (EP) helps shard experts across accelerators when expert weights dominate
🚀 Data Parallelism (DP) + EP is often a good fit for throughput-oriented MoE serving

💥 hf-mem v0.4.1 now also estimates KV cache memory requirements for any context length and batch size with the --experimental flag!

uvx hf-mem --model-id ... --experimental will automatically pull the required information from the Hugging Face Hub to include the KV cache estimation, when applicable.

💡 Alternatively, you can also set the --max-model-len, --batch-size and --kv-cache-dtype arguments (à la vLLM) manually if preferred.

deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-OCR is out! 🔥 my take ⤵️
> pretty insane it can parse and re-render charts in HTML
> it uses CLIP and SAM features concatenated, so better grounding
> very efficient per vision tokens/performance ratio
> covers 100 languages

Okay this is insane... WebGPU-accelerated semantic video tracking, powered by DINOv3 and Transformers.js! 🤯
Demo (+ source code): webml-community/DINOv3-video-tracking

This will revolutionize AI-powered video editors... which can now run 100% locally in your browser, no server inference required (costs $0)! 😍

How does it work? 🤔
1️⃣ Generate and cache image features for each frame
2️⃣ Create a list of embeddings for selected patch(es)
3️⃣ Compute cosine similarity between each patch and the selected patch(es)
4️⃣ Highlight those whose score is above some threshold

... et voilà! 🥳

You can also make selections across frames to improve temporal consistency! This is super useful if the object changes its appearance slightly throughout the video.

Excited to see what the community builds with it!
