OPTIMUM-INTEL ADDS META MUSE GLIMMER SUPPORT VIA OPENVINO

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Hugging Face · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

OpenVINO now exports Meta's Muse Glimmer multimodal model with int4 quantization, bringing image-text-to-text inference to the optimization stack.

The Optimum Intel team landed full support for Meta Muse Glimmer [1], including both Onyx and Glimmer variants, with floating-point attention masks in the vision encoder and video support [2]. The PR adds quantization-aware export paths, integration tests, and documentation for a model that handles vision and language in tandem. Elsewhere, FunASR model type handling got corrected [3] to align with OpenVINO's type expectations. On the Hub side, the CLI's scheduled upload feature had a critical bug: `hf upload <repo> <dir>/<file> --every N` never committed anything because the command passed the full local path as an allow pattern, but CommitScheduler matches patterns against folder-relative paths [4]. That's fixed. Documentation work shipped across hub-docs, including OAuth scope clarification for Inference Endpoints [5] and a corrected import example for parse_hf_mount [6].
