hi
can you share how you created the onnx model and run it?
Thanks
Gerald
Hi,
Thanks for reaching out to us, Converting a complex, state-of-the-art model like Gemma 3 4B IT (Instruct-Tuned) to the ONNX format for deployment requires specialized tools, particularly due to the model's large size and architectural details.
Please find the following resource to know more about the ONNX conversion - ref1 and ref2.
Thanks.
