Surge analysis
why it's on the radarHugging Face publishes a single trending score; it doesn't expose the formula. So Model Radar reads the surge from the four public signals that move with it — momentum, adoption, community and recency — each normalized against the tracked field, then weighted into a 0–100 composite. The weights are ours, and shown below. No hidden inputs.

In context
vs. category peersHow this model stacks up against the other 48 Vision models on the radar. The filled bar is this model; the tick is the category-peer median. Downloads and likes use a log scale (they span orders of magnitude).
Bars are normalized against the most extreme model in the whole radar, so a near-full bar means category-leading. Peer median = the middle model of the 48 in this category.
Recency
last updateWhere this model's last update lands on a freshness scale — fresh (<14d), recent (14–60d), or older.
