Hello AI World - now supports Python and onboard training with PyTorch

External Media

Hi all, just merged a large set of updates and new features into jetson-inference master:

  • Python API support for imageNet, detectNet, and camera/display utilities
  • Python examples for processing static images and live camera streaming
  • Support for interacting with numpy ndarrays from CUDA
  • Onboard re-training of ResNet-18 models with PyTorch
  • Example datasets: 800MB Cat/Dog and 1.5GB PlantCLEF
  • Camera-based tool for collecting and labeling custom datasets
  • Text UI tool for selecting/downloading pre-trained models
  • New pre-trained image classification models (on 1000-class ImageNet ILSVRC)
    • ResNet-18, ResNet-50, ResNet-101, ResNet-152
    • VGG-16, VGG-19
    • Inception-v4
  • New pre-trained object detection models (on 90-class MS-COCO)
    • SSD-Mobilenet-v1
    • SSD-Mobilenet-v2
    • SSD-Inception-v2
  • API Reference documentation for C++ and Python
  • Command line usage info for all examples, run with --help
  • Output of network profiler times, including pre/post-processing
  • Improved font rasterization using system TTF fonts

Here’s an object detection example in 10 lines of Python code using SSD-Mobilenet-v2 (90-class MS-COCO) with TensorRT, which runs at 25FPS on Jetson Nano on a live camera stream with OpenGL visualization:

import jetson.inference
import jetson.utils

net = jetson.inference.detectNet("ssd-mobilenet-v2")
camera = jetson.utils.gstCamera()
display = jetson.utils.glDisplay()

while display.IsOpen():
	img, width, height = camera.CaptureRGBA()
	detections = net.Detect(img, width, height)
	display.RenderOnce(img, width, height)
	display.SetTitle("Object Detection | Network {:.0f} FPS".format(1000.0 / net.GetNetworkTime()))

Thanks to all the beta testers of the new features from here on the forums!
