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.

It works in Video, and is recorded as doing action recognition.

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

Training and provenance

The training set ran to roughly 9,240 tokens.

Answers

TSN — common questions

01

What GPU do I need to run TSN?

None. TSN 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.

02

Is TSN open source?

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

03

How many parameters does TSN have?

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

04

Who created TSN?

TSN was published by ETH Zurich,Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology,Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), based in Switzerland, categorised as academia,Academia.

05

When was TSN released?

TSN 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.

06

What is TSN used for?

TSN works in Video, and is recorded as handling action recognition. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.

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.
