Link to find ResNet_V2_101 model: https://www.tensorflow.org/lite/guide/hosted_models

Direct link to download this model: https://storage.googleapis.com/download.tensorflow.org/models/tflite_11_05_08/resnet_v2_101.tgz

To validate TensorFlow model on one image run:

python3 demo_classification.py --engine tf --graph resnet_v2_101_299_frozen.pb --image example.jpeg

To validate TensorFlow model on ImageNet dataset run:

python3 evaluate.py --engine tf --graph resnet_v2_101_299_frozen.pb --dataset ILSVRC2012_img_val

OpenVINO sample

Run the convert.py script before converting the model, it creates resnet_v2_101_299_opt.pb file in current directory:

python3 convert.py --graph resnet_v2_101_299_frozen.pb

To convert TensorFlow model to Intermediate Representation:

mo --input_model resnet_v2_101_299_opt.pb --input_shape "[1,299,299,3]"

To validate OpenVINO model on one image run:

python3 demo_classification.py --engine opvn --graph resnet_v2_101_299_opt.xml --image example.jpeg 

To validate OpenVINO model on ImageNet dataset run:

python3 evaluate.py --engine opvn --graph resnet_v2_101_299_opt.xml --dataset ILSVRC2012_img_val

To quantizes the model to int8 model run:

python3 quantize.py --xml resnet_v2_101_299_opt.xml --data ILSVRC2012_img_val --annotation ILSVRC2012_img_val/val.txt

This script created /model/optimised folder in current folder with quantized model.

To validate int8 model on one image run:

python3 demo_classification.py --engine opvn --graph /model/optimized/resnet_v2_101_299_opt.xml --image example.jpeg 

To validate int8 model on ImageNet dataset run:

python3 evaluate.py --engine opvn --graph /model/optimized/resnet_v2_101_299_opt.xml --dataset ILSVRC2012_img_val
