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

Where it came from

MGK 4 heads (medium) was published by FPT Software AI Center,University of California Los Angeles (UCLA),VinUniversity,Deezer Research,Rice University,University of Texas at Austin, in Vietnam, in October 2021. The organisation is categorised as industry,Academia,Academia,Academia,Academia.

It works in Language, and is recorded as doing language modeling.

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

How it was trained

Training it took roughly 8.9 × 10¹⁸ FLOP of computation, on NVIDIA A100 — a measure of what producing the model cost, not of how fast it answers.

Answers

MGK 4 heads (medium) — common questions

01

How many parameters does MGK 4 heads (medium) have?

MGK 4 heads (medium) has 90M 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.

02

Who created MGK 4 heads (medium)?

MGK 4 heads (medium) was published by FPT Software AI Center,University of California Los Angeles (UCLA),VinUniversity,Deezer Research,Rice University,University of Texas at Austin, based in Vietnam, categorised as industry,Academia,Academia,Academia,Academia.

03

When was MGK 4 heads (medium) released?

MGK 4 heads (medium) was published in October 2021. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

04

What is MGK 4 heads (medium) used for?

MGK 4 heads (medium) works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling. 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.

05

How much compute was used to train MGK 4 heads (medium)?

Around 8.9 × 10¹⁸ FLOP, on NVIDIA A100. That measures what producing the model cost and says nothing about how quickly it answers once trained — inference speed comes from memory bandwidth, not from the training budget.

06

What GPU do I need to run MGK 4 heads (medium)?

None. MGK 4 heads (medium) 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.

07

Is MGK 4 heads (medium) open source?

No. MGK 4 heads (medium) has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
