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 clap-htsat-fused
Pairing sound with text is the job here: LAION eV's clap-htsat-fused puts audio and text embeddings in one space, so it can classify audio zero-shot against labels you write or produce features for search. Training data was LAION-audio-630k; size is 154M parameters. At 16-bit the weights are 0.3 GB and the run needs 0.4 GB; the cheapest listed option is one 192 GB MI300X at $1.85 an hour on-demand. Treat it as a sidecar on a card that is already serving something larger.
Apache 2.0 covers commercial deployment, modification and redistribution if the notices and any NOTICE file stay attached and significant changes are stated. Two checks before committing. The text side stops at 514 tokens, fine for labels and captions, not for long documents. And the repository is 1.23 GB in 11 files at float32 against 0.3 GB of 16-bit weights, so budget for storage and conversion.
