DNN EM segmentation is an AI model developed by IDSIA and SUPSI (Switzerland), first published in December 2012. It works in the vision domain, on tasks such as image segmentation. It counts among the frontier models: the systems trained with the most compute of their moment.
Training it took an estimated 4.8×10¹⁷ FLOP of compute (estimation method: operation counting,hardware). The model has 218,896 parameters. It was trained on roughly 3M datapoints. Training ran on 4 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 for about 17 hours. The compute alone is estimated at $4 in 2023 dollars.
Access: Unreleased. Its weights are not openly released. Epoch AI rates the confidence of this record as confident.
