Running Xgboost model on Android-Ios mobile devices

I am doing research on how can I run my Xgboost model on Mobile device.

So far what I found is ML-Kit is hot in this space. But unfortunately, it is supporting only Tensorflow lite ( https://firebase.google.com/docs/ml-kit )

Is there any other alternative which can guide me to run Xgboost pre-trained model on Android-iOS mobile devices?

Take a look at CoreML

But I guess it support only iOS. Is it?

@hcho3 Thanks for your quick reply.
I appreciate if you can provide some guide to run Xgboost on mobile device.

I see treelite can help - https://github.com/dmlc/treelite/issues/6

Compile treelite on a laptop or desktop.
Use treelite to produce a C program.
Compile the produced C program on Android.

But as I have not idea how to play on mobile platform, if any document with more detailed guide would help me a lot.

I’m not an expert on mobile platform, so I won’t be able to help you much. Take a look at https://developer.android.com/ndk for compiling C native code on Android devices. Also https://github.com/ademar111190/CppAndroidIosExample may be useful to you.
