## Use Case Recommendations
### Optimal Model Selection
**For Multimodal Tasks**:
-**E4B-MarkBase** (only option with Audio+Vision)
- Audio: 12-layer tower
- Vision: 16-layer tower
- Fastest multimodal inference
**For Text Generation (Speed)**:
-**E4B-MarkBase** (42.8 tok/s, fastest)
- KV sharing efficiency
- Smaller memory footprint
**For Text Generation (Quality)**:
-**31B** (largest model, highest capacity)
- 60 layers, 64 attention heads
- Most parameters for complex tasks
**For Balanced Performance**:
-**12B** or **E2B**
- Good tradeoff between speed and capacity
- 48 layers, 3840 hidden
**For Per-Layer Analysis**:
-**E2B** (per-layer architecture)
- Special input handling
- Research/experimental use
**NOT Recommended For**:
-**Code Generation**: All models perform poorly
- Recommendation: Use specialized code model (CodeLlama, StarCoder)
