Translation-invariant MLP is an AI model developed by Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) (United States), first published in June 1987. It counts among the frontier models: the systems trained with the most compute of their moment.

Training it took an estimated 1.8×10¹⁰ FLOP of compute (estimation method: operation counting). The model has 816 parameters. It was trained on roughly 160 datapoints.

Epoch AI rates the confidence of this record as confident.
