Closed weights Stanford University October 2013

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
Language
Task
Sentiment classification

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
155,063 tokens

"The sentences in the treebank were split into a train (8544), dev (1101) and test splits (2210)" Training data: 215154*(8544/11855)=155063

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
1.4 × 10¹⁶ FLOP

"The RNTN would usually achieve its best performance on the dev set after training for 3 - 5 hours."

The training run

What it physically took to train: which chips, how many, for how long, and what that drew from the wall.

Wall-clock time
5 hours

The RNTN would usually achieve its best performance on the dev set after training for 3 - 5 hours.

Availability

Whether you can obtain the model and run it on your own hardware, which is what decides if any of the graphics-card figures on this page apply.

What the numbers mean

What this model is

RNTN was published by Stanford University, in United States of America, in October 2013. academia is the category the publisher falls under.

It works in Language, and is recorded as doing sentiment classification.

Because the weights are not available, none of the hardware figures elsewhere on this site apply to it.

What went into building it

Training it took roughly 1.4 × 10¹⁶ FLOP of computation — a measure of what producing the model cost, not of how fast it answers.

The training set ran to roughly 155,063 tokens.

It is tracked in the underlying dataset for one reason in particular: highly cited.

Answers

RNTN — common questions

01

How much compute was used to train RNTN?

Around 1.4 × 10¹⁶ 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.

02

What GPU do I need to run RNTN?

None. RNTN 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.

03

Is RNTN open source?

No. RNTN has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.

04

How many parameters does RNTN have?

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

05

Who created RNTN?

RNTN was published by Stanford University, based in United States of America, categorised as academia.

06

When was RNTN released?

RNTN was published in October 2013. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.

07

What is RNTN used for?

RNTN works in Language, and is recorded as handling sentiment classification. 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.

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.
