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

Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient was published by Huazhong University of Science and Technology,Fudan University,Northwestern Polytechnical University, in China, in April 2024. It comes out of academia,Academia,Academia.

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

It is derived from ESM2-35M rather than trained from scratch, which is the usual way a specialised model is produced.

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

How it was trained

Around 30,841,287 tokens went into training it.

Answers

Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient — common questions

01

When was Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient released?

Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient was published in April 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 Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient used for?

Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient 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 Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient?

None. Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient 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 Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient open source?

The licensing for Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient 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 Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient have?

Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient has 35.8M 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 Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient?

Beyond ESM2: Graph-Enhanced Protein Sequence Modeling with Efficient was published by Huazhong University of Science and Technology,Fudan University,Northwestern Polytechnical University, based in China, categorised as academia,Academia,Academia.
