An evaluation row appears only where at least two of these models report the same benchmark with the same stated configuration, metric, unit and setup. Different evaluators stay named in each cell. Values are shown as reported: no unit conversion, no ranking.
SAVRN's Notes on bert-base-cased
Nobody needs to size a server around 109 million parameters, and the memory line says why: at 16-bit the weights come to 0.2 GB and the model runs in 0.3 GB. The cheapest Index setup, one MI300X with 192 GB at $1.85 an hour on-demand, is the smallest slice we list, not what it asks for. Run it on what you own; it fills masked tokens in English text inside a 512 token window, and capitalization changes its answer.
Apache 2.0 lets you ship it in a commercial product if the license and notice files travel with it and you state significant changes. Check that 512 tokens covers your inputs, that bookcorpus and wikipedia pretraining fits your domain, and that a 2024-02-19 last update is recent enough. The repository runs to 1.8 GB across ten files, holding safetensors, pytorch, jax and tf, so pull the format your stack loads.
