DINOv2 is an AI model developed by Facebook AI Research and INRIA (United States and France), first published in April 2023. It works in the vision domain, on tasks such as image representation and image classification.
Training it took an estimated 7.4×10²¹ FLOP of compute (estimation method: hardware). The model has 1,140,000,000 parameters. It was trained on roughly 36.4B datapoints. Training ran on NVIDIA A100 SXM4 40 GB. The compute alone is estimated at $10K in 2023 dollars.
Access: Open weights (unrestricted). Its weights are openly available. The reference paper has 8,133 citations. Epoch AI rates the confidence of this record as confident.
