  • Selective schema loading of specific operator set versions to reduce memory usage in runtimes
  • New and updated operators to support more data types and models including advanced object detection models like MobileNetV3, YOLOv5
  • Improved tools for splitting large, multi-GB models into separate files
  • More details and sample tests added to operator documentation
