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

SeaMoon was published by Sorbonne University,Université Grenoble Alpes,Institut Universitaire de France (IUF), in the country recorded as France, during September 2024. The publishing organisation is categorised as academia,Academia,Research collective.

It works in the domain of Biology, and is recorded as performing the task of protein folding prediction.

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

Answers

SeaMoon — common questions

01

SeaMoon— who created it?

It was published by Sorbonne University,Université Grenoble Alpes,Institut Universitaire de France (IUF), based in France, an organisation categorised as academia,Academia,Research collective.

02

SeaMoon— when was it released?

It was published in September 2024. 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

SeaMoon— what is it used for?

It works in the domain of Biology, and is recorded as handling the task of protein folding prediction. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.

04

SeaMoon— 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.

05

SeaMoon— 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.

06

SeaMoon— how many parameters does it have?

It has a parameter count of 1M. 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.

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.
