The model card lists Qwen3.5-9B as the base model and says the model files, including Apple's modifications to the Qwen model, are provided under the Apple Machine Learning Research Model License, while the accompanying code in the apple-aiml-research/ml-lensvlm repository is under the Apple Sample Code License. The model accompanies the paper "LensVLM: Selective Context Expansion for Compressed Visual Representation of Text." USASI has not tested LensVLM-9B.
