pico-type 🔍 (v02)

A tiny byte-level multi-head content classifier — ~1.5M params, ~9MB single-file ONNX (FP32), ~18ms CPU inference.

Classifies any content from raw bytes: coarse type · modality · subtype · code language · text language · file MIME · risk flags

What's here

Single-file IR-8 ONNX exports (FP32, opset 18) for all 4 Matryoshka tiers — tiny / small / base / pro — sharing the same trunk:

Load directly with onnxruntime:

import onnxruntime as ort
import numpy as np

session = ort.InferenceSession("picotype_base.onnx")

text = b"def hello(): pass"
ids = np.frombuffer(text[:1024], dtype=np.uint8).astype(np.int64)
padded = np.zeros(1024, dtype=np.int64)
padded[:len(ids)] = ids
mask = np.zeros(1024, dtype=np.bool_)
mask[:len(ids)] = True

outs = session.run(None, {"input_ids": padded[None, :], "attention_mask": mask[None, :]})
