Questions About cn_conformer_small_dr_vectors

How much GPU memory does cn_conformer_small_dr_vectors need?

About 0 GB at 16-bit and 0 GB at 4-bit: the weights (2M parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

What is the cheapest GPU to run cn_conformer_small_dr_vectors 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 cn_conformer_small_dr_vectors commercially?

Yes. cn_conformer_small_dr_vectors 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.
