Transformer-XL + RelationLM
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.

Training compute
The arithmetic performed to train the model, measured in floating-point operations. It is a measure of what the training run cost, not of how fast the finished model answers you.

What the numbers mean
What this model is
Transformer-XL + RelationLM was published by DeepMind,University of Oxford, in the country recorded as United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, during January 2022. The publishing organisation is categorised as industry,Academia.
It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as performing the task of language modeling/generation.
This is a closed model: the trained values stayed with whoever produced them, and there is no local version to run.
How it was trained
The training set ran to roughly 103,000,000 tokens of text.
Answers
Transformer-XL + RelationLM — common questions
Transformer-XL + RelationLM— is it open source?
No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
Transformer-XL + RelationLM— how many parameters does it have?
It has a parameter count of 124M. 124M (Table 2) "We set the hidden size to 512 and the number of layers to 16 for all models.". 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.
Transformer-XL + RelationLM— who created it?
It was published by DeepMind,University of Oxford, based in United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, an organisation categorised as industry,Academia.
Transformer-XL + RelationLM— when was it released?
It was published in January 2022. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
Transformer-XL + RelationLM— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as handling the task of language modeling/generation. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
Transformer-XL + RelationLM— what GPU do I need to run it?
None. This 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.
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.
