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.

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.

How it is classified

Labels the source dataset applies when tracking notable models, and how confident it is in the entry.

Why it is tracked
SOTA improvement

"In experiments, we demonstrate the language model with MMLSTMs surpasses the existing state-of-the-art model on Penn Treebank (PTB) and WikiText-2 (WT2) datasets"

What the numbers mean

About this model

MMLSTM (WT-2) was published by Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications,University of West London, in China, in December 2019. academia,Academia is the category the publisher falls under.

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 1.9 × 10¹⁷ FLOP of computation — a measure of what producing the model cost, not of how fast it answers.

It was trained on about 2,000,000 tokens of text.

Its inclusion criterion is sOTA improvement.

Answers

MMLSTM (WT-2) — common questions

01

What is MMLSTM (WT-2) used for?

MMLSTM (WT-2) works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.

02

How much compute was used to train MMLSTM (WT-2)?

Around 1.9 × 10¹⁷ FLOP. 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.

03

What GPU do I need to run MMLSTM (WT-2)?

None. MMLSTM (WT-2) 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 MMLSTM (WT-2) open source?

No. MMLSTM (WT-2) has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.

05

How many parameters does MMLSTM (WT-2) have?

MMLSTM (WT-2) has 32.3M parameters. Table III. 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 MMLSTM (WT-2)?

MMLSTM (WT-2) was published by Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications,University of West London, based in China, categorised as academia,Academia.

07

When was MMLSTM (WT-2) released?

MMLSTM (WT-2) was published in December 2019. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

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.
