## Runs On

What it takes to serve upernet-convnext-tiny (60M 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 25, 2026.

## Model Card

By OpenMMLab, published under mit, revision 876ffc56b819.

### UperNet, ConvNeXt tiny-sized backbone

UperNet framework for semantic segmentation, leveraging a ConvNeXt backbone. UperNet was introduced in the paper [Unified Perceptual Parsing for Scene Understanding](https://savrn.com/papers/unified-perceptual-parsing-for-scene-understanding) by Xiao et al.

Combining UperNet with a ConvNeXt backbone was introduced in the paper [A ConvNet for the 2020s](https://savrn.com/papers/a-convnet-for-the-2020s).

Disclaimer: The team releasing UperNet + ConvNeXt did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.

### Model description

UperNet is a framework for semantic segmentation. It consists of several components, including a backbone, a Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) and a Pyramid Pooling Module (PPM).

Any visual backbone can be plugged into the UperNet framework. The framework predicts a semantic label per pixel.

### Intended uses & limitations

You can use the raw model for semantic segmentation. See the [model hub](https://huggingface.co/models?search=openmmlab/upernet) to look for fine-tuned versions (with various backbones) on a task that interests you.

## Questions About upernet-convnext-tiny

### How much GPU memory does upernet-convnext-tiny need?

About 0.1 GB at 16-bit and 0 GB at 4-bit: the weights (60M parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

### What is the cheapest GPU to run upernet-convnext-tiny 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 upernet-convnext-tiny commercially?

[FASHN](https://savrn.com/model-publishers/fashn-ai)

A SegFormer-B4 model fine-tuned for human parsing with 18 semantic classes, optimized for fashion and virtual try-on applications. This model segments human images into 18 semantic categories including body parts (face, hair, arms, hands, legs, feet, torso), clothing items (top, dress, skirt, pants, belt, scarf), and accessories (bag, hat, glasses, jewelry). The pipeline automatically manages GPU/CPU and returns per-class masks at the original image resolution. For maximum accuracy, use our Python package which implements the exact preprocessing used during training: The package uses cv2.INTERAREA for resizing (matching training), while the HuggingFace pipeline uses PIL LANCZOS.
