Neural Network Tools: Converter, Constructor and Analyser

Providing a tool for some fashion neural network frameworks.

The nn_tools is released under the MIT License (refer to the LICENSE file for details).

features

  1. Converting a model between different frameworks.
  2. Some convenient tools of manipulate caffemodel and prototxt quickly(like get or set weights of layers), see nn_tools.Caffe.
  3. Analysing a model, get the operations number(ops) in every layers.

requirements

  • Python2.7 or Python3.x
  • Each functions in this tools requires corresponding neural network python package (tensorflow pytorch and so on).

Converter

Pytorch to Caffe

The new version of pytorch_to_caffe supporting the newest version(from 0.2.0 to 1.0) of pytorch. NOTICE: The transfer output will be somewhat different with the original model, caused by implementation difference.

  • Supporting layers types: conv2d, transpose_conv2d, linear, max_pool2d, avg_pool2d, dropout, relu, prelu, threshold(only value=0),softmax, batch_norm, instance_norm

  • Supporting operations: torch.split, torch.cat

  • Supporting tensor Variable operations: var.view, var.mean, var.sum, var.contiguous, + (add), += (iadd), -(sub), -=(isub) * (mul) *= (imul) / (div)

  • The not supporting operations will transferred to a Python layer in Caffe. You can implemented it by yourself.

  • Testify whether your transformed Caffe model is workable. See tmp/testify_pytorch_to_caffe.py.

The supported above can transfer many kinds of nets. The tested network:

  • AlexNet(tested)
  • VGG(tested)
  • ResNet(tested)
  • Inception_V3(tested)
  • SqueezeNet(tested)

The supported layers concluded the most popular layers and operations. The other layer types will be added soon, you can ask me to add them in issues.

Note: You need net.eval() before converting the pytorch networks.

Example: please see file example/<alexnet/resnet/inception_v3>_pytorch_to_caffe.py.

$python3 example/alexnet_pytorch_to_caffe.py

Add blob         blob0         : torch.Size([1, 3, 226, 226])
Processing Layer: features.0
Add blob       conv_blob1      : torch.Size([1, 64, 55, 55])
Processing Layer: features.1
 ...
Transform Completed

If you have compiled Pycaffe and set the pycaffe path. You can run testify_pytorch_to_caffe to test whether the output of every Caffe layer is the same as the output in Pytorch.

$python3 example/testify_pytorch_to_caffe_example.py
TEST layer features_0: PASS
TEST layer features_1: PASS
...
TEST output
TEST output: PASS

Analyser

The analyser can analyse all the model layers' [input_size, output_size, multiplication ops, addition ops, comparation ops, tot ops, weight size and so on] given a input tensor size, which is convenint for model deploy analyse.

Caffe Analyser

Before you analyse your network, Netscope is recommended to visiualize your network.

Command：python caffe_analyser.py [-h] prototxt outdir shape

  • The prototxt is the path of the prototxt file.
  • The outdir is path to save the csv file.
  • The shape is the input shape of the network(split by comma ,), in caffe image shape should be: batch_size, channel, image_height, image_width.

For example python caffe_analyser.py resnet_18_deploy.prototxt analys_result.csv 1,3,224,224

Pytorch Analyser

Supporting analyse the inheritors of torch.nn.Moudule class.

Command：pytorch_analyser.py [-h] [--out OUT] [--class_args ARGS] path name shape

  • The path is the python file path which contaning your class.
  • The name is the class name or instance name in your python file.
  • The shape is the input shape of the network(split by comma ,), in pytorch image shape should be: batch_size, channel, image_height, image_width.
  • The out (optinal) is path to save the csv file, default is '/tmp/pytorch_analyse.csv'.
  • The class_args (optional) is the args to init the class in python file, default is empty.

For example python pytorch_analyser.py example/resnet_pytorch_analysis_example.py resnet18 1,3,224,224

Mxnet Analyser

Supporting analyse the inheritors of mxnet.sym.

Command：mxnet_analyser.py [-h] [--out OUT] [--func_args ARGS] [--func_kwargs FUNC_KWARGS] path name shape

  • The path is the python file path which contaning your symbol definition.
  • the symbol object name or function that generate the symbol in your python file.
  • The shape is the input shape of the network(split by comma ,), in mxnet image shape should be: batch_size, channel, image_height, image_width.
  • The out (optinal) is path to save the csv file, default is '/tmp/mxnet_analyse.csv'.
  • The func_args (optional) is the args to init the class in python file, default is empty.

For example python mxnet_analyser.py example/mobilenet_mxnet_symbol.py get_symbol 1,3,224,224

Some useful functions

funcs.py

  • get_iou(box_a, box_b) intersection over union of two boxes
  • nms(bboxs,scores,thresh) Non-maximum suppression
  • Logger print some str to a file and stdout with H M S
