## Runs On

What it takes to serve clipseg-rd64-refined (151M parameters): the memory its weights need at each precision, and the cheapest way to rent enough data-center GPUs to hold them.

Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context; a long context needs more. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the [SAVRN Index](https://savrn.com/ai-index/pricing/gpus), read Oct 22, 2026.

## SAVRN's Notes on clipseg-rd64-refined

Give it a picture and a phrase, or a picture and a reference image, and it returns a segmentation mask. CIDAS built clipseg-rd64-refined for zero-shot and one-shot image segmentation from text and image prompts, per Lüddecke et al., arXiv:2112.10003. The text side takes at most 77 tokens, so prompts are short labels, not descriptions. The 151M parameters are stored in float32, which is why the download is 1.2 GB while the 16-bit run needs only 0.4 GB. The cheapest Index setup is one MI300X with 192 GB at $1.85 per hour.

Apache 2.0 covers commercial use, modification and redistribution, with notices kept. The rd64 in the name is a reduce dimension of 64, and refined means the variant with the more complex convolution, so match the checkpoint to what your pipeline was tuned against.

## Questions About clipseg-rd64-refined

### How much GPU memory does clipseg-rd64-refined need?

About 0.4 GB at 16-bit and 0.1 GB at 4-bit: the weights (151M parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

### What is the cheapest GPU to run clipseg-rd64-refined on?

At 16-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour; at 4-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.

### Can I use clipseg-rd64-refined commercially?

Yes. clipseg-rd64-refined is released under Apache License 2.0. The Apache License 2.0 is a permissive open-source license. It permits commercial use, modification and redistribution. It requires keeping the license and copyright notices and any NOTICE file, stating significant changes, and it includes an express patent grant from contributors.

### What is clipseg-rd64-refined's context length?

77 tokens, from the maximum position embeddings in its published configuration.

[BackgroundErase](https://savrn.com/model-publishers/pramallc)

BEN2 (Background Erase Network) introduces a novel approach to foreground segmentation through its innovative Confidence Guided Matting (CGM) pipeline. The architecture employs a refiner network that targets and processes pixels where the base model exhibits lower confidence levels, resulting in more precise and reliable matting results. This model is built on BEN: BEN2 was trained on the DIS5k and our 22K proprietary segmentation dataset. Our enhanced model delivers superior performance in hair matting, 4K processing, object segmentation, and edge refinement. Our Base model is open source. To try the full model through our free web demo or integrate BEN2 into your project with our API…

This repository preserves a completed, reloadable experiment. It is not a production model and not independently benchmarked. The retained release records describe a private pilot policy; current public visibility does not resolve that restriction or establish redistribution permission. The word “pilot” is part of the model identity and should not be removed in downstream documentation. The metrics below come from the campaign validation split.
