Compile .mlmodel to .mlmodelc for Xamarin.iOS?

Question

I want to use CoreML for my Xamarin.iOS app but how can I use models? All samples in developer.xamarin is use .mlmodelc but I downloaded .mlmodel. How can I convert to .mlmodelc?

Answer 1

You can use Xcode to compile your model:

xcrun coremlcompiler compile MyModel.mlmodel MyModel.mlmodelc

This outputs an .mlmodelc that you can add to your project.

Or you can do it dynamically inside your app by using MLModel.compileModel(at:).

Answer 2

You can also use this command in Mac terminal:

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/coremlc compile coreml.mlmodel
