Refined Part Pooling
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 it does
The problem areas the model was built for. A model can carry several of each.
- Domain
- Vision
- Task
- Person retrieval
Size
How large the model is and how much data it was trained on. Parameters are the figure that decides whether it fits on a given graphics card.
- Training data
- 77,616 tokens
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.
- Training compute
- 2.6 × 10¹⁶ FLOP
- How it was established
- Hardware
12150000000000*3600*2*0.3=2.6244e+16 FLOP
The training run
What it physically took to train: which chips, how many, for how long, and what that drew from the wall.
- Training hardware
- NVIDIA TITAN Xp
- Chips used
- 2
- Wall-clock time
- 1 hours
- Power draw
- 1.0 kW
"With two NVIDIA TITAN XP GPUs and Pytorch as the platform, training an IDE model and a standard PCB on Market-1501 (12,936 training images) consumes about 40 and 50 minutes, respectively"

What the numbers mean
Where it came from
Refined Part Pooling was published by Tsinghua University,University of Technology Sydney,University of Texas at San Antonio, in the country recorded as China, during January 2018. It comes out of an organisation categorised as academia,Academia,Academia.
It works in the domain of Vision, and is recorded as performing the task of person retrieval.
Its weights were never published, so it can only be reached through its provider. No graphics card changes that.
How it was trained
Producing it required arithmetic totalling around 2.6 × 10¹⁶ FLOP, on hardware recorded as NVIDIA TITAN Xp. That figure measures what producing the model cost, and has no bearing on how fast it answers.
It was trained on a corpus of about 77,616 tokens of text.
Answers
Refined Part Pooling — common questions
Refined Part Pooling— how much compute was used to train it?
Training consumed around 2.6 × 10¹⁶ FLOP, on hardware recorded as NVIDIA TITAN Xp. 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.
Refined Part Pooling— 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.
Refined Part Pooling— is it open source?
The licensing was never recorded in our source data. We treat unstated licensing as closed, because an unrecorded licence is not one to rely on.
Refined Part Pooling— how many parameters does it have?
No parameter count has been published for it, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.
Refined Part Pooling— who created it?
It was published by Tsinghua University,University of Technology Sydney,University of Texas at San Antonio, based in China, an organisation categorised as academia,Academia,Academia.
Refined Part Pooling— when was it released?
It was published in January 2018. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
Refined Part Pooling— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Vision, and is recorded as handling the task of person retrieval. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
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.
