# mlx-community/map-anything-fp16

float16 MLX conversion of [`facebook/map-anything`](https://huggingface.co/facebook/map-anything)
(revision `a1d87e90`) for the `mapanything` model in
[mlx-vlm](https://github.com/Blaizzy/mlx-vlm).
[MapAnything](https://github.com/facebookresearch/map-anything) (Meta and
CMU, 3DV 2026) is a feed-forward model for metric 3D reconstruction: from one
or more images, plus any optional intrinsics, depth maps and camera poses, one
forward pass predicts for every view the metric point map, depth, ray
directions, camera pose and intrinsics, a confidence map and a
non-ambiguity mask.

This is an unofficial derivative. It holds weights and metadata only; the
inference code lives in mlx-vlm. The weights are under [CC BY-NC 4.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/), like the original: noncommercial use only. For commercial use, see [`mlx-community/map-anything-apache-fp16`](https://huggingface.co/mlx-community/map-anything-apache-fp16), the Apache 2.0 release trained on a different data mix.

What is in `model.safetensors` (2.65 GB, about half the size of the float32
original):

- 1.13 B float16 parameters: the linear layers (weights and biases) of the
  DINOv2 ViT-g/14 encoder (its first 24 blocks) and of the 16-layer
  multi-view transformer;
- 95 M float32 parameters: the patch embedding, norms, LayerScales and
  position embeddings, the geometric input encoders, and the DPT, pose and
  scale heads;
- keys renamed to the MLX module tree and conv kernels in channel-last
  layout. `config.json` is the original configuration plus `model_type`.

The encoder and transformer run their matmuls and attention in float16 with a
float32 residual stream, norms and activations: the reference's mixed
precision picks float16 on Apple GPUs. The heads run in float32, as in the
reference.

## Use with mlx-vlm

Requires an mlx-vlm version that includes the `mapanything` model (added
after 0.7.4).

```python
import mlx.core as mx
from mlx_vlm import load

model, processor = load("mlx-community/map-anything-fp16")

views = processor.load_images("path/to/images")  # a folder or a list of images
predictions = model.infer(views)                  # one dict per view, lazy
mx.eval(predictions)

pred = predictions[0]
pred["pts3d"]         # (1, H, W, 3) metric world points (first view's frame)
pred["depth_z"]       # (1, H, W, 1) metric depth
pred["camera_poses"]  # (1, 4, 4) OpenCV cam2world
pred["intrinsics"]    # (1, 3, 3)
pred["conf"]          # (1, H, W) confidence
pred["mask"]          # (1, H, W, 1) valid pixels
```

Any view can add calibration, depth and pose, in any combination:

```python
views = processor.preprocess([
    {"img": image0, "intrinsics": K0, "depth_z": depth0, "camera_poses": pose0},
    {"img": image1, "intrinsics": K1},
    {"img": image2, "camera_poses": (quats_xyzw, trans), "is_metric_scale": False},
])
predictions = model.infer(views)
```

Command line, writing every output to `predictions.npz` and a colored point
cloud to `points.ply`:

```bash
MLX_ENABLE_TF32=0 python -m mlx_vlm.models.mapanything.generate \
    --model mlx-community/map-anything-fp16 --images path/to/images --output out
```

On Apple M5 and later GPUs, MLX runs float32 matmuls at TF32 precision by
default, which makes the float32 heads the largest source of error. Set
`MLX_ENABLE_TF32=0` before the first MLX matmul to avoid it (the command
line does this); it costs a few milliseconds.

## Accuracy and speed

Measured against the float32 PyTorch reference on frames of three outdoor videos (4 views at 518x294, `MLX_ENABLE_TF32=0`). With this float16 model, depth after scale normalization has a median relative error of 5e-5 to 2e-4 and the metric scale is within 1e-4 to 1.2e-3, on par with the reference's own mixed precision on MPS (6e-5 to 3e-4 and 2e-5 to 1.7e-3). In float32,
the MLX port matches the reference to ~1e-6 on every output.

Full `infer` (network and post-processing) on an Apple M5 Max, 518x294
views. Another GPU application was running during these runs, so treat the
numbers as relative:

| Views | MLX, this model | PyTorch MPS, mixed precision |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | 0.06 s | 0.13 s |
| 4 | 0.23 s | 0.47 s |
| 8 | 0.48 s | 1.73 s |
| 16 | 1.10 s | 5.27 s |
| 32 | 2.89 s | 11.3 s |
