# litert-community/Gecko-110m-en

This model provides a few variants of the embedding model published in the [Gecko paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.20327) that are ready for deployment on Android or iOS using [LiteRT stack](https://ai.google.dev/edge/litert) or [google ai edge RAG SDK](https://ai.google.dev/edge/mediapipe/solutions/genai/rag).

## Use the models

### Android

* Try out the gecko embedding model in the [google ai edge RAG SDK](https://ai.google.dev/edge/mediapipe/solutions/genai/rag). You can find the SDK on [GitHub](https://github.com/google-ai-edge/ai-edge-apis/tree/main/local_agents/rag) or follow our [android guide](https://ai.google.dev/edge/mediapipe/solutions/genai/rag/android)
to install directly from Maven. We have also published a
[sample app](https://github.com/google-ai-edge/ai-edge-apis/tree/main/examples/rag).
* Use the sentencepiece model as the tokenizer for the Gecko embedding model.

## Performance

### Android

Note that all benchmark stats are from a Samsung S23 Ultra.

</table>

*   Model Size: measured by the size of the .tflite flatbuffer (serialization format for LiteRT models)
*   Memory: indicator of peak RAM usage
*   The inference is run on CPU is accelerated via the LiteRT [XNNPACK](https://github.com/google/XNNPACK) delegate with 4 threads
*   The inference on GPU is accelerated via LiteRT GPU delegate.
*   Benchmark is done assuming XNNPACK cache is enabled
*   dynamic_int8: quantized model with int8 weights and float activations.
