How to read infer raw output?

Accelerated Computing Intelligent Video Analytics DeepStream SDK
#1

I am trying to run the deepstream-app with a primary-gie as a yolo model and a secondary-gie as a classifier.
The yolo detector works well on the video display, but I can’t find a way to get the secondary-gie inference data in a readable form.
I am using the “infer-raw-output-dir” key in the config file, and receive unreadable bin files in that directory.
How to read these files?
