Hi everyone! I appreciate your help. I am a researcher and I use UMAP to cluster my data. Reproducibility is a key requirement for my field, so I set a random seed for reproducibility. After coming back to my project after some time, I do not get the same results than previously even though I am working in a virtual environment, which I did not change. When pondering about the reasons, I remembered that I upgraded my OS from Sonoma 14.1.1 to 14.5, so I was wondering whether the change in OS might cause those issues. I'm sorry if this question is obvious to developer folks, but before I downgrade my OS or create a virtual machine, any tipp is much appreciated. Thank you!

I understand we can use MPSImageBatch as input to [MPSNNGraph encodeBatchToCommandBuffer: ...] method. That being said, all inputs to the MPSNNGraph need to be encapsulated in a MPSImage(s). Suppose I have an machine learning application that trains/infers on thousands of input data where each input has 4 feature channels. Metal Performance Shaders is chosen as the primary AI backbone for real-time use. Due to the nature of encodeBatchToCommandBuffer method, I will have to create a MTLTexture first as a 2D texture array. The texture has pixel width of 1, height of 1 and pixel format being RGBA32f. The general set up will be: #define NumInputDims 4 MPSImageBatch * infBatch = @[]; const uint32_t totalFeatureSets = N; // Each slice is 4 (RGBA) channels. const uint32_t totalSlices = (totalFeatureSets * NumInputDims + 3) / 4; MTLTextureDescriptor * descriptor = [MTLTextureDescriptor texture2DDescriptorWithPixelFormat: MTLPixelFormatRGBA32Float width: 1 height: 1 mipmapped: NO]; descriptor.textureType = MTLTextureType2DArray descriptor.arrayLength = totalSlices; id<MTLTexture> texture = [mDevice newTextureWithDescriptor: descriptor]; // bytes per row is `4 * sizeof(float)` since we're doing one pixel of RGBA32F. [texture replaceRegion: MTLRegionMake3D(0, 0, 0, 1, 1, totalSlices) mipmapLevel: 0 withBytes: inputFeatureBuffers[0].data() bytesPerRow: 4 * sizeof(float)]; MPSImage * infQueryImage = [[MPSImage alloc] initWithTexture: texture featureChannels: NumInputDims]; infBatch = [infBatch arrayByAddingObject: infQueryImage]; The training/inference will be: MPSNNGraph * mInferenceGraph = /*some MPSNNGraph setup*/; MPSImageBatch * returnImage = [mInferenceGraph encodeBatchToCommandBuffer: commandBuffer sourceImages: @[infBatch] sourceStates: nil intermediateImages: nil destinationStates: nil]; // Commit and wait... // Read the return image for the inferred result. As you can see, the setup is really ad hoc - a lot of 1x1 pixels just for this sole purpose. Is there any better way I can achieve the same result while still on Metal Performance Shaders? I guess a further question will be: can MPS handle general machine learning cases other than CNN? I can see the APIs are revolved around convolution network, both from online documentations and header files. Any response will be helpful, thank you.

I can use BLAS and LAPACK functions via the Accelerate framework to perform vector and matrix arithmetic and linear algebra calculations. But do these functions take advantage of Apple Silicon features?

Hey guys, If you are still having issues on having your download stuck at 99% and switching on and off WiFi, I believe I have a fix. turn your cellular data completely off. It will force the device to just use wifi. Then the download will restart and actually complete.

Hi everyone, I might need some help with on-device recognition. It seems that the speech recognition task will discard whatever it has transcribed after a new sentence starts (or it believes it becomes a new sentence) during a single audio session, with requiresOnDeviceRecognition is set to true. This doesn't happen with requiresOnDeviceRecognition set to false. System environment: macOS 14 with Xcode 15, deploying to iOS 17 Thank you all!

I'm trying to generate a json for my training data, tried manually first and then tried using roboflow and I still get the same error: _annotations.createml.json file contains field "Index 0" that is not of type String. the json format provided by roboflow was [{"image":"menu1_jpg.rf.44dfacc93487d5049ed82952b44c81f7.jpg","annotations":[{"label":"100","coordinates":{"x":497,"y":431.5,"width":32,"height":10}}]}] any help would be greatly appreciated

Xcode Version 16.0 (16A242d) iOS18 - Swift There seems to be a behavior change on iOS18 when using AppShortcuts and AppIntents to pass string parameters. After Siri prompts for a string property requestValueDialog, if the user makes a statement the string is passed. If the user's statement is a question, however, the string is not sent to the AppIntent and instead Siri attempts to answer that question. Example Code: struct MyAppNameShortcuts: AppShortcutsProvider { @AppShortcutsBuilder static var appShortcuts: [AppShortcut] { AppShortcut( intent: AskQuestionIntent(), phrases: [ "Ask \(.applicationName) a question", ] ) } } struct AskQuestionIntent: AppIntent { static var title: LocalizedStringResource = .init(stringLiteral: "Ask a question") static var openAppWhenRun: Bool = false static var parameterSummary: some ParameterSummary { Summary("Search for \(\.$query)") } @Dependency private var apiClient: MockApiClient @Parameter(title: "Query", requestValueDialog: .init(stringLiteral: "What would you like to ask?")) var query: String // perform is not called if user asks a question such as "What color is the moon?" in response to requestValueDialog // iOS 17, the same string is passed though @MainActor func perform() async throws -> some IntentResult & ProvidesDialog & ShowsSnippetView { print("Query is: \(query)") let queryResult = try await apiClient.askQuery(queryString: query) let dialog = IntentDialog( full: .init(stringLiteral: queryResult.answer), supporting: .init(stringLiteral: "The answer to \(queryResult.question) is...") ) let view = SiriAnswerView(queryResult: queryResult) return .result(dialog: dialog, view: view) } } Given the above mock code: iOS17: Hey Siri Ask (AppName) a question Siri responds "What would you like to ask?" Say "What color is the moon?" String of "What color is the moon?" is passed to the AppIntent iOS18: Hey Siri Ask (AppName) a question Siri responds "What would you like to ask?" Say "What color is the moon?" Siri answers the question "What color is the moon?" Follow above steps again and instead reply "Moon" "Moon" is passed to AppIntent Basically any interrogative string parameters seem to be intercepted and sent to Siri proper rather than the provided AppIntent in iOS 18

Hi everyone, I’m currently in the process of converting and optimizing the Stable Diffusion XL model for iOS 18. I followed the steps from the WWDC 2024 session on model optimization, specifically the one titled "Bring your machine learning and AI models to Apple Silicon." I utilized the Stable Diffusion XL model and the tools available in the ml-stable-diffusion GitHub repository and ran the following script to convert the model into an .mlpackage: python3 -m python_coreml_stable_diffusion.torch2coreml \ --convert-unet \ --convert-vae-decoder \ --convert-text-encoder \ --xl-version \ --model-version stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0 \ --bundle-resources-for-swift-cli \ --refiner-version stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-refiner-1.0 \ --attention-implementation SPLIT_EINSUM \ -o ../PotraitModel/ \ --custom-vae-version madebyollin/sdxl-vae-fp16-fix \ --latent-h 128 \ --latent-w 96 \ --chunk-unet The model conversion worked without any issues. However, when I proceeded to optimize the model in a Jupyter notebook, following the same process shown in the WWDC session, I encountered an error during the post-training quantization step. Here’s the code I used for that: op_config = cto_coreml.0pPalettizerConfig( nbits=4, mode="kmeans", granularity="per_grouped_channel", group_size=16, ) config = cto_coreml.OptimizationConfig(op_config) compressed_model = cto_coreml.palettize_weights(mlmodel, config) Unfortunately, I received the following error: AssertionError: The IOS16 only supports per-tensor LUT, but got more than one lut on 0th axis. LUT shape: (80, 1, 1, 1, 16, 1) It appears that the minimum deployment target of the MLModel is set to iOS 16, which might be causing compatibility issues. How can I update the minimum deployment target to iOS 18? If anyone has encountered this issue or knows a workaround, I would greatly appreciate your guidance! Thanks in advance for any help!

I don’t see the Apple Intelligence tap, even with iOS 18.1, language and region United States, Sri in English US… what can I do?

Why does Apple sell Iphones 16 with AI that won’t work in europe? You do not sell a car without a engine. Was it not better to wait to bring it to europe?

I was working on my project and when I tried to train a model the kernel crashed, so I restarted the kernel and tried the same and still I got the same crashing issue. Then I read one of the thread having the same issue where the apple support was saying to install tensorflow-macos and tensorflow-metal and read the guide from this site: https://developer.apple.com/metal/tensorflow-plugin/ and I did so, I tried every single thing and when I tried the test code provided in the site, I got the same error, here's the code and the output.

why it’s taking too long to download appl intelligence on iPhone 15 pro max . how long it will take to download. I use 5G now it counting 4 weeks still downloading.

WWDC 2024 mentioned that the OCR feature from the Vision framework has support for "Korean, Swedish, and Chinese", but the Swedish support does not seem to be available... Running either print(try? VNRecognizeTextRequest().supportedRecognitionLanguages()) or var ocrRequest = RecognizeTextRequest(.revision3) print(ocrRequest.supportedRecognitionLanguages) did not print out Swedish as one of the supported languages, but Korean and Chinese are. Tested on early versions of iOS 18 developer beta, and the latest version of iOS 18.1 (22B5054e).

Can vector embeddings be used in a SwiftData Model? If yes, are there resources available to learn more about it? or at least a guided step on how to make it work?

Hi Ty for playing

With apple intelligence enabled I am seeing a 10-15 sec delay in push notification. This is actually causing issue with my alarm system, door bells and 2FA requests. I'm using iPhone 16 Pro. First installed 18.1 Dev beta 5 and AI and noticed this. When beta 6 was released it continued. I put in FB15389900.

Hi, I'm working on training a createML object detector model; I've run into an issue that has me stumped - when I reach somewhere between 100,000 and 150,000 iterations my model will stop training and error out. More Details: CreateML gives me the error prompt that says it is unable to train the model please delete the model source and start from the beginning or duplicate the model and start from the beginning (slightly paraphrased) I see the following error in the createML console (my user name and UUIDs have been redacted) Unable to load model from file:///Users/<my user name>/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.createml/projects/<UUID HERE>/sessions/checkpoint.sessions/<UUID Here>//training-000132500.checkpoint: Cannot open file:///Users/<my user name>/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.createml/projects/<UUID Here>/sessions/checkpoint.sessions/<uuid here> //training-000132500.checkpoint/dir_archive.ini for read. Cannot open /Users/<my username>/Library/Caches/com.apple.dt.createml/projects/<UUID>/sessions/checkpoint.sessions/<UUID>//training-000132500.checkpoint/dir_archive.ini for reading I've gone into my Caches in my Library directory and I see each piece of the file path in finder UNTIL the //training-00132500 piece of the path, so I can at least confirm that createML appears to be unable to create or open the file it needs for this training session. Technology Used: Xcode 16 Apple M1 Pro MacOS 14.6.1 (23G93) I've also verified that Xcode and terminal have full disk permissions in my system preferences - I didn't see an option to add CreateML to this list. I've also ensured that my createML project and its data sources are not in iCloud and are indeed local on my desktop. Lastly, I made more space on my machine, so I should have a little over 1 TB of space. Has anybody experienced this before? Any advice? I am majorly blocked on this issue, so I hope somebody else can help shed some light on this issue! Thanks!

Hi all, I'm tuning my app prediction speed with Core ML model. I watched and tried the methods in video: Improve Core ML integration with async prediction and Optimize your Core ML usage. I also use instruments to look what's the bottleneck that my prediction speed cannot be faster. Below is the instruments result with my app. its prediction duration is 10.29ms And below is performance report shows the average speed of prediction is 5.55ms, that is about half time of my app prediction! Below is part of my instruments records. I think the prediction should be considered quite frequent. Could it be faster? How to be the same prediction speed as performance report? The prediction speed on macbook Pro M2 is nearly the same as macbook Air M1!

I'm experiencing issues with the Core ML Async API, as it doesn't seem to be working correctly. It consistently hangs during the "03 performInference, after get smallInput, before prediction" part, as shown in the attached: log1.txt log2.txt Below is my code. Could you please advise on how I should modify it? private func createFrameAsync(for sampleBuffer: CMSampleBuffer ) { guard let pixelBuffer = sampleBuffer.imageBuffer else { return } Task { print("**** createFrameAsync before performInference") do { try await runModelAsync(on: pixelBuffer) } catch { print("Error processing frame: \(error)") } print("**** createFrameAsync after performInference") } } func runModelAsync(on pixelbuffer: CVPixelBuffer) async { print("01 performInference, before resizeFrame") guard let data = metalResizeFrame(sourcePixelFrame: pixelbuffer, targetSize: MTLSize.init(width: InputWidth, height: InputHeight, depth: 1), resizeMode: .scaleToFill) else { os_log("Preprocessing failed", type: .error) return } print("02 performInference, after resizeFrame, before get smallInput") let input = model_smallInput(input: data) print("03 performInference, after get smallInput, before prediction") if let prediction = try? await mlmodel!.model.prediction(from: input) { print("04 performInference, after prediction, before get result") var results: [Float] = [] let output = prediction.featureValue(for: "output")?.multiArrayValue if let bufferPointer = try? UnsafeBufferPointer<Float>(output!) { results = Array(bufferPointer) } print("05 performInference, after get result, before setRenderData") let localResults = results await MainActor.run { ScreenRecorder.shared .setRenderDataNormalized( screenImage: pixelbuffer, depthData: localResults ) } print("06 performInference, after setRenderData") } }
