Closed weights Tsinghua University 4.5M parameters July 2024

No estimate

No hardware requirements for this model

The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.

On record

Full specification

Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

What the numbers mean

Where it came from

RNACG was published by Tsinghua University, in China, in July 2024. academia is the category the publisher falls under.

It works in Biology, and is recorded as doing protein or nucleotide language model (pLM/nLM).

Because the weights are not available, none of the hardware figures elsewhere on this site apply to it.

Answers

RNACG — common questions

01

When was RNACG released?

RNACG was published in July 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

02

What is RNACG used for?

RNACG works in Biology, and is recorded as handling protein or nucleotide language model (pLM/nLM). A model can carry several of each, so these are the areas it was built for rather than a limit on what it will attempt.

03

What GPU do I need to run RNACG?

None. RNACG is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.

04

Is RNACG open source?

The licensing for RNACG was never recorded in our source data. We treat unstated licensing as closed, because an unrecorded licence is not one to rely on.

05

How many parameters does RNACG have?

RNACG has 4.5M parameters. That figure is the total, and it is what decides how much memory the model needs — roughly half a gigabyte per billion at the compression most people use.

06

Who created RNACG?

RNACG was published by Tsinghua University, based in China, categorised as academia.

The other direction

Looking at it from the other side?

This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
