3D city reconstruction
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
Where it came from
3D city reconstruction was published by University of Washington,Microsoft Research,Cornell University, in the country recorded as United States of America, during September 2009. It comes out of an organisation categorised as academia,Industry,Academia.
It works in the domain of 3D modeling, and is recorded as performing the task of 3D reconstruction.
Its weights were never published, so it can only be reached through its provider. No graphics card changes that.
Answers
3D city reconstruction — common questions
3D city reconstruction— 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.
3D city reconstruction— 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.
3D city reconstruction— who created it?
It was published by University of Washington,Microsoft Research,Cornell University, based in United States of America, an organisation categorised as academia,Industry,Academia.
3D city reconstruction— when was it released?
It was published in September 2009. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
3D city reconstruction— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of 3D modeling, and is recorded as handling the task of 3D reconstruction. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
3D city reconstruction— 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.
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.
