Anyone know how many parameters?

The model weights are only ~5GB, so this is small.

UnboundedContex 1 hour ago | parent

Approx ~131 million total. Made up of estimated:

102M - modified BERT-base-Chinese text encoder

26M - 3D U-Net-style vision/anatomy encoder

2.8M - projection layers, anatomy-specific projections, query tokens and attention layer

Written to run on something like an H100 though- as the CT Scan data is quite large.

I much prefer Gemini. It tells me I'm very smart and almost always right.

I much prefer load-bearing discussions myself.

I'm wonder when there will be model for predict future. Could be named "Crystal bAill"

Isn't detecting cancer predicting a possible future? Hopefully one you can change.

> model [to] predict future

The attempt is already there: "predicting the future" is called "intelligence".
