Provenance: converted from the original fp32 safetensors by Scripts/convert-birefnet.py (fp16, ImageNet normalization folded into the input layer, deform_conv2d rewritten in plain tensor ops). Numerical parity against the fp32 originals — MAE ≤ 0.0005, binary-mask agreement ≥ 99.96% on real photos — is recorded in docs/research.md appendix A.6.

Pluck verifies the pinned SHA256 of every download before installing (see product-plan §4.8); these hashes are compiled into the app's manifest.
