I’m trying to group my EntityPropertyQuery selection into sections as well as making it searchable.
I know that the EntityStringQuery is used to perform the text search via entities(matching string: String). That works well enough and results in this modal:
Though, when I’m using a DynamicOptionsProvider to section my EntityPropertyQuery, it doesn’t allow for searching anymore and simply opens the sectioned list in a menu like so:
How can I combine both? I’ve seen it in other apps, but can’t figure out why my code doesn’t allow to section the results and make it searchable? Any ideas?
My code (simplified)
struct MyIntent: AppIntent {
@Parameter(title: "Meter"),
optionsProvider: MyOptionsProvider())
var meter: MyIntentEntity?
// …
struct MyOptionsProvider: DynamicOptionsProvider {
func results() async throws -> ItemCollection<MyIntentEntity> {
// Get All Data
let allData = try IntentsDataHandler.shared.getEntities()
// Create Arrays for Sections
let fooEntities = allData.filter { $0.type == .foo }
let barEntities = allData.filter { $0.type == .bar }
return ItemCollection(sections: [
ItemSection("Foo",
items: fooEntities),
ItemSection("Bar",
items: barEntities)
])
}
}
struct MeterIntentQuery: EntityStringQuery {
// entities(for identifiers: [UUID]) and suggestedEntities() functions
func entities(matching string: String) async throws -> [MyIntentEntity] {
// Fetch All Data
let allData = try IntentsDataHandler.shared.getEntities()
// Filter Data by String
let matchingData = allData.filter { data in
return data.title.localizedCaseInsensitiveContains(string))
}
return matchingData
}
}

While building an app with large language model inferencing on device, I got gibberish output. After carefully examining every detail, I found it's caused by the fused scaledDotProductAttention operation. I switched back to the discrete operations and problem solved. To reproduce the bug, please check https://github.com/zhoudan111/MPSGraph_SDPA_bug

I'm implementing an LLM with Metal Performance Shader Graph, but encountered a very strange behavior, occasionally, the model will report an error message as this:
LLVM ERROR: SmallVector unable to grow. Requested capacity (9223372036854775808) is larger than maximum value for size type (4294967295)
and crash, the stack backtrace screenshot is attached. Note that 5th frame is
mlir::getIntValues<long long>
and 6th frame is
llvm::SmallVectorBase<unsigned int>::grow_pod
It looks like mlir mistakenly took a 64 bit value for a 32 bit type. Unfortunately, I could not found the source code of
mlir::getIntValues, maybe it's Apple's closed source fork of llvm for MPS implementation? Anyway, any opinion or suggestion on that?

Our app is downloading a zip of an .mlpackage file, which is then compiled into an .mlmodelc file using MLModel.compileModel(at:). This model is then run using a VNCoreMLRequest.
Two users – and this after a very small rollout - are reporting issues running the VNCoreMLRequest. The error message from their logs:
Error Domain=com.apple.CoreML Code=0 "Failed to build the model execution plan using a model architecture file '/private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/F93077A5-5508-4970-92A6-03A835E3291D/Documents/SKDownload/Identify-image-iOS/mobile_img_eu_v210.mlmodelc/model.mil' with error code: -5."
The URL there is to a file inside the compiled model. The error is happening when the perform function of VNImageRequestHandler is run. (i.e. the model compiled without an error.)
Anyone else seen this issue? Its only picked up in a few web results and none of them are directly relevant or have a fix.
I know that a CoreML error Code=0 is a generic error, but does anyone know what error code -5 is? Not even sure which framework its coming from.
Hello,
I'm trying to write a model with PyTorch and convert it to CoreML.
I wrote another models and that works succesfully, even the one that gave the problem is, but I can't visualize it with XCode to know where is running.
The error that appear is:
There was a problem decoding this Core ML document
validator error: unable to open file for read
Anyone knows why is this happening?
Thanks a lot,

Hi everyone,
I'm a Mac enthusiast experimenting with tensorflow-metal on my Mac Pro (2013). My question is about GPU selection in tensorflow-metal (v0.8.0), which still supports Intel-based Macs, including my machine.
I've noticed that when running TensorFlow with Metal, it automatically selects a GPU, regardless of what I specify using device indices like "gpu:0", "gpu:1", or "gpu:2". I'm wondering if there's a way to manually specify which GPU should be used via an environment variable or another method.
For reference, I’ve tried the example from TensorFlow’s guide on multi-GPU selection: https://www.tensorflow.org/guide/gpu#using_a_single_gpu_on_a_multi-gpu_system
My goal is to explore performance optimizations by using MirroredStrategy in TensorFlow to leverage multiple GPUs: https://www.tensorflow.org/guide/distributed_training#mirroredstrategy
Interestingly, I discovered that the metalcompute Python library (https://pypi.org/project/metalcompute/) allows to utilize manually selected GPUs on my system, allowing for proper multi-GPU computations. This makes me wonder:
Is there a hidden environment variable or setting that allows manual GPU selection in tensorflow-metal?
Has anyone successfully used MirroredStrategy on multiple GPUs with tensorflow-metal?
Would a bridge between metalcompute and tensorflow-metal be necessary for this use case, or is there a more direct approach?
I’d love to hear if anyone else has experimented with this or has insights on getting finer control over GPU selection. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Hi,
One can configure the languages of a (VN)RecognizeTextRequest with either:
.automatic: language to be detected
a specific language, say Spanish
If the request is configured with .automatic and successfully detects Spanish, will the results be exactly equivalent compared to a request made with Spanish set as language?
I could not find any information about this, and this is very important for the core architecture of my app.
Thanks!
Hello, I have to create an app in Swift that it scan NFC Identity card. It extract data and convert it to human readable data. I do it with below code
import CoreNFC
class NFCIdentityCardReader: NSObject , NFCTagReaderSessionDelegate {
func tagReaderSessionDidBecomeActive(_ session: NFCTagReaderSession) {
print("\(session.description)")
}
func tagReaderSession(_ session: NFCTagReaderSession, didInvalidateWithError error: any Error) {
print("NFC Error: \(error.localizedDescription)")
}
var session: NFCTagReaderSession?
func beginScanning() {
guard NFCTagReaderSession.readingAvailable else {
print("NFC is not supported on this device")
return
}
session = NFCTagReaderSession(pollingOption: .iso14443, delegate: self, queue: nil)
session?.alertMessage = "Hold your NFC identity card near the device."
session?.begin()
}
func tagReaderSession(_ session: NFCTagReaderSession, didDetect tags: [NFCTag]) {
guard let tag = tags.first else {
session.invalidate(errorMessage: "No tag detected")
return
}
session.connect(to: tag) { (error) in
if let error = error {
session.invalidate(errorMessage: "Connection error: \(error.localizedDescription)")
return
}
switch tag {
case .miFare(let miFareTag):
self.readMiFareTag(miFareTag, session: session)
case .iso7816(let iso7816Tag):
self.readISO7816Tag(iso7816Tag, session: session)
case .iso15693, .feliCa:
session.invalidate(errorMessage: "Unsupported tag type")
@unknown default:
session.invalidate(errorMessage: "Unknown tag type")
}
}
}
private func readMiFareTag(_ tag: NFCMiFareTag, session: NFCTagReaderSession) {
// Read from MiFare card, assuming it's formatted as an identity card
let command: [UInt8] = [0x30, 0x04] // Example: Read command for block 4
let requestData = Data(command)
tag.sendMiFareCommand(commandPacket: requestData) { (response, error) in
if let error = error {
session.invalidate(errorMessage: "Error reading MiFare: \(error.localizedDescription)")
return
}
let readableData = String(data: response, encoding: .utf8) ?? response.map { String(format: "%02X", $0) }.joined()
session.alertMessage = "ID Card Data: \(readableData)"
session.invalidate()
}
}
private func readISO7816Tag(_ tag: NFCISO7816Tag, session: NFCTagReaderSession) {
let selectAppCommand = NFCISO7816APDU(instructionClass: 0x00, instructionCode: 0xA4, p1Parameter: 0x04, p2Parameter: 0x00, data: Data([0xA0, 0x00, 0x00, 0x02, 0x47, 0x10, 0x01]), expectedResponseLength: -1)
tag.sendCommand(apdu: selectAppCommand) { (response, sw1, sw2, error) in
if let error = error {
session.invalidate(errorMessage: "Error reading ISO7816: \(error.localizedDescription)")
return
}
let readableData = response.map { String(format: "%02X", $0) }.joined()
session.alertMessage = "ID Card Data: \(readableData)"
session.invalidate()
}
}
}
But I got null. I think that these data are encrypted. How can I convert them to readable data without MRZ, is it possible ?
I need to get personal informations from Identity card via Core NFC.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards
In an under-development MacOS & iOS app, I need to identify various measurements from OCR'ed text: length, weight, counts per inch, area, percentage. The unit type (e.g. UnitLength) needs to be identified as well as the measurement's unit (e.g. .inches) in order to convert the measurement to the app's internal standard (e.g. centimetres), the value of which is stored the relevant CoreData entity.
The use of NLTagger and NLTokenizer is problematic because of the various representations of the measurements: e.g. "50g.", "50 g", "50 grams", "1 3/4 oz."
Currently, I use a bespoke algorithm based on String contains and step-wise evaluation of characters, which is reasonably accurate but requires frequent updating as further representations are detected.
I'm aware of the Python SpaCy model being capable of NER Measurement recognition, but am reluctant to incorporate a Python-based solution into a production app. (ref [https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/30092])
My preference is for an open-source NER Measurement model that can be used as, or converted to, some form of a Swift compatible Machine Learning model. Does anyone know of such a model?
Hi team,
We have implemented a writing tool inside a WebView that allows users to type content in a textarea. When the "Show Writing Tools" button is clicked, an AI-powered editor opens. After clicking the "Rewrite" button, the AI modifies the text. However, when clicking the "Replace" button, the rewritten text does not update the original textarea.
Kindly check and help me

Hi, i just wanna ask, Is it possible to run YOLOv3 on visionOS using the main camera to detect objects and show bounding boxes with labels in real-time? I’m wondering if camera access and custom models work for this, or if there’s a better way. Any tips?
I am working on a lung cancer scanning app in for iOS with a CoreML model and when I test my app on a physical device, the model results in the same prediction 100% of the time. I even changed the names around and still resulted in the same case. I have listed my labels in cases and when its just stuck on the same case (case 1)
My code is below:

I couldn't add the code as it was too long so I hope github link is fine!

Is it possible to train a model using CreateML to infer a relevance numeric score of a news article based on similar trained data, something like a sentiment score ? I created a Text Classifier that assigns a category label which works perfect but I would like a solution that calculates a numeric value, not a label.

Hi,
I'm testing DockKit with a very simple setup:
I use VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest to detect a face and then call dockAccessory.track(...) using the detected bounding box.
The stand is correctly docked (state == .docked) and dockAccessory is valid.
I'm calling .track(...) with a single observation and valid CameraInformation (including size, device, orientation, etc.). No errors are thrown.
To monitor this, I added a logging utility – track(...) is being called 10–30 times per second, as recommended in the documentation.
However: the stand does not move at all.
There is no visible reaction to the tracking calls.
Is there anything I'm missing or doing wrong?
Is VNDetectFaceRectanglesRequest supported for DockKit tracking, or are there hidden requirements?
Would really appreciate any help or pointers – thanks!
That's my complete code:

)
has taken 90 minutes to run so far and is still not completed. From debugging, I can see that the line it's stuck on is line 261 in _model_debugger.py:
model = ct.models.MLModel(
cloned_spec,
weights_dir=self.weights_dir,
compute_units=compute_units,
skip_model_load=False, # Don't skip model load as we need model prediction to get activations range.

Is this expected behaviour? Would it be quicker to run on another computer with more RAM?
Hey dear developers!
This post should be available for the future Siri updates and improvements but also for wishes in this forum so that everyone can share their opinion and idea please stay friendly. have fun! I had already thought about developing a demo app to demonstrate my idea for a better Siri.
My change of many:
Wish Update: Siri's language recognition capabilities have been significantly enhanced. Instead of manually setting the language, Siri can now automatically recognize the language you intend to use, making language switching much more efficient. Simply speak the language you want to communicate in, and Siri will automatically recognize it and respond accordingly. Whether you speak English, German, or Japanese, Siri will respond in the language you choose.

I have seen inconsistent results for my Colab machine learning notebooks running locally on a Mac M4, compared to running the same notebook code on either T4 (in Colab) or a RTX3090 locally.
To illustrate the problems I have set up a notebook that implements two simple CNN models that solves the Fashion-MNIST problem. https://colab.research.google.com/drive/11BhtHhN079-BWqv9QvvcSD9U4mlVSocB?usp=sharing
For the good model with 2M parameters I get the following results:
T4 (Colab, JAX): Test accuracy: 0.925
3090 (Local PC via ssh tunnel, Jax): Test accuracy: 0.925
Mac M4 (Local, JAX): Test accuracy: 0.893
Mac M4 (Local, Tensorflow): Test accuracy: 0.893
That is, I see a significant drop in performance when I run on the Mac M4 compared to the NVIDIA machines, and it seems to be independent of backend. I however do not know how to pinpoint this to either Keras or Apple’s METAL implementation. I have reported this to Keras: https://colab.research.google.com/drive/11BhtHhN079-BWqv9QvvcSD9U4mlVSocB?usp=sharing but as this can be (likely is?) an Apple Metal issue, I wanted to report this here as well.
On the mac I am running the following Python libraries:
keras 3.9.1
tensorflow 2.19.0
tensorflow-metal 1.2.0
jax 0.5.3
jax-metal 0.1.1
jaxlib 0.5.3

I got 3203.23 GFLOPS (FP16) on the M3 Macbook Pro and only 2833.24 GFLOPS (FP16) on the M4 Macbook Air for 4096x4096 matrix multiplications for a PyTorch MPS FP16 Benchmark. Wasn't the performance supposed to be twice as high on the M4 compared to the M3 even with the termal throtling on the Macbook Air? What went wrong?
