Libraries

How to use prithivMLmods/LightOnOCR-1B-1025-AIO-GGUF with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
# Warning: Pipeline type "image-to-text" is no longer supported in transformers v5.
# You must load the model directly (see below) or downgrade to v4.x with:
# 'pip install "transformers<5.0.0'
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("image-to-text", model="prithivMLmods/LightOnOCR-1B-1025-AIO-GGUF")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoModel
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("prithivMLmods/LightOnOCR-1B-1025-AIO-GGUF", dtype="auto")

LightOnOCR-1B-1025-AIO-GGUF

The LightOnOCR-1B-1025 from lightonai is a compact 1B-parameter end-to-end vision-language model optimized for Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and document understanding, combining a Pixtral-based Vision Transformer encoder with a lightweight Qwen3-based text decoder distilled from high-quality VLMs, achieving state-of-the-art accuracy in its class on Olmo-Bench (76.1% overall, with 81.4% on ArXiv papers, 71.6% on old scans, and strong math/table handling) while processing 5.71 pages/second on a single H100 GPU—5× faster than dots.ocr, 2× faster than PaddleOCR-VL-0.9B, and 1.73× faster than DeepSeekOCR at under $0.01 per 1,000 pages. Fully differentiable without external OCR pipelines, it excels at layout-aware extraction from high-resolution PDFs (rendered at ~1540px longest dimension), handling tables, receipts, forms, multi-column layouts, math notation, and multilingual text (Latin-dominant) under Apache 2.0 license, with compact 32k/16k vocab variants for European languages and vLLM/Transformers support for efficient inference and LoRA fine-tuning.
