Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD
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
What this model is
Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD was published by University of Edinburgh,Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago, in United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, in September 2016. 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.
Answers
Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD — common questions
How many parameters does Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD have?
Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD has 46M 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.
Who created Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD?
Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD was published by University of Edinburgh,Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago, based in United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, categorised as academia,Academia.
When was Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD released?
Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD was published in September 2016. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
What is Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD used for?
Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
What GPU do I need to run Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD?
None. Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD 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.
Is Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD open source?
No. Byte-mLSTM+emb+WN+VD has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
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.
