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

Background

PSPNet was published by Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), in Hong Kong, in July 2017. It comes out of academia.

It works in Vision, and is recorded as doing image segmentation.

Its weights were never published, so it can only be reached through its provider. No graphics card changes that.

How it was trained

Its inclusion criterion is highly cited.

Answers

PSPNet — common questions

01

Who created PSPNet?

PSPNet was published by Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), based in Hong Kong, categorised as academia.

02

When was PSPNet released?

PSPNet was published in July 2017. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

03

What is PSPNet used for?

PSPNet works in Vision, and is recorded as handling image segmentation. 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.

04

What GPU do I need to run PSPNet?

None. PSPNet 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.

05

Is PSPNet open source?

The licensing for PSPNet was never recorded in our source data. We treat unstated licensing as closed, because an unrecorded licence is not one to rely on.

06

How many parameters does PSPNet have?

No parameter count has been published for PSPNet, which is why no memory or speed figure appears on this page.

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.
