Efficient GPT-4V level multimodal large language model for deployment on edge devices.

Multimodal large language models have revolutionized AI research and industry, paving the way toward the next milestone. However, their large sizes and high computational costs restrict deployment to cloud servers, limiting use in mobile, offline, energy-sensitive, or privacy-critical scenarios. We present MiniCPM-V, efficient models for edge devices that integrate advancements in architecture, training, and data.

Thermophilic anaerobic digestion of source-sorted organic fraction of household municipal solid waste: start-up procedure for continuously stirred tank reactor.

Two feeding strategies for start-up of continuously stirred tank reactors (CSTR) treating source-sorted organic fraction of household municipal solid waste (SS-OFMSW) at 55 degrees C were evaluated. Two reactors were started up separately with a limited amount of initial inoculum (i.e.
