Detailed Description

Abstract base class for an object recognition component.

This base class provides a framework to recognize objects using deep neural networks. The network is implemented using the tiny-dnn library, see https://github.com/tiny-dnn/tiny-dnn

Derived classes implement a particular network by overriding the define() method of the base class. They also must implement the other abstract methods provided here.

To create a new object recognition component, one would usually derive from the ObjectRecognition class template as opposed to deriving directly from ObjectRecognitionBase.

Training

Training is automatically launched if a pre-trained weight file is not found. Thus, typical workflow is, assuming JeVois v1.4 or later:

  • create a new derived class and implement define(), train(), prcess(), etc in there. See ObjectRecognitionMNIST for example.
  • create a directory /jevois/share/tiny-dnn/NAME/ where NAME is the instance name you give to your derived object.
  • copy the training data to that directory (as required by your implementation of train() in your derived class)
  • run jevois-daemon on host, make sure it has write permission to the directory you created. It will fail to load the pre-trained weights and will initiate training.
  • when training is complete, trained weights will be saved as /jevois/share/tiny-dnn/NAME/weights.tnn (for JeVois v1.4 or earlier) or as /jevois/share/tiny-dnn/NAME/weights.tnn.host (for JeVois v1.5 or later).

Starting with JeVois v1.5, tiny-dnn has been updated to a recent version which uses cereal as a back-end to save networks and weights. This yields efficient loading of pre-trained networks but the binary archive format is not portable between Intel x64 hosts and ARM platform. Hence, you should proceed as follows:

  • run the above steps. Two files will be saved: weights.tnn.host (binary) and weights.tnn.json (portable text file).
  • copy weights.tnn.json to microSD in JEVOIS:/share//tiny-dnn/NAME/ where NAME is the instance name you give to your derived object.
  • insert microSD into JeVois camera and launch the machine vision mode that uses your network.
  • ObjectRecognition::load() will fail to load the missing weights.tnn.platform (binary) and will thus revert to loading weights.tnn.json instead. It will then save weights.tnn.platform to microSD. Because this was done by the JeVois camera, weights.tnn.platform will now be in ARM binary format.
  • You can now copy weights.tnn.platform out of your microSD to ~/jevoisbase/share/tiny-dnn/NAME/ so that it will be flashed to microSD next time you make one using jevois-flash-card and you will avoid having to convert again next time JeVois starts.
