Tensorflow RNN UFF conversion not yet supported?

skyser2003 · October 11, 2018, 5:59am

Hello, I am testing some tensorflow rnn code to be used with TensorRT, but it doesn’t seem to work.

import random
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np

with tf.name_scope("Operation"):
    batch_size = 10
    rnn_cell = tf.nn.rnn_cell.BasicRNNCell(1)
    initial_state = rnn_cell.zero_state(batch_size, dtype=tf.float32)

    inputs = [tf.placeholder(tf.float32, shape=[batch_size, 1])]

    outputs, state = tf.nn.static_rnn(rnn_cell, inputs,
                                   initial_state=initial_state,
                                   dtype=tf.float32)

with tf.Session() as sess:
    sess.run(tf.global_variables_initializer())
    tf.train.write_graph(sess.graph, "", "output.pb", as_text=False)

    for i in range(1000):
        feed_dict = {inputs[0]: np.repeat([[1]], 10, axis=0)}
        sess.run([outputs, state], feed_dict=feed_dict)

    print("Done")

So this is my sample code, and I used convert-to-uff to convert output.pb to output.uff, but it generates following error.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/skyser2003/.local/bin/convert-to-uff", line 11, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())

  File "/home/skyser2003/.local/lib/python3.4/site-packages/uff/converters/tensorflow/converter.py", line 136, in convert_tf2numpy_const_node
    return array.reshape(shape)
ValueError: cannot reshape array of size 0 into shape ()

I looked into convert_bias_add method, and it seemed that bias tensor used in BasicRNNCell is basically empty, so that’s why it gives out array of size 0 error. And this means that TensorRT does not support BasicRNNCell, contrary to what is written in official document.

So my questions are

tf.nn.static_rnn is currently supported, but am I doing something wrong?
If it isn’t supported, is there any plan to support it in near future?

Tested with both TensorRT4 and TensorRT5 RC version.

Thanks.

Hello,

I’m able to run your code w/o error. On both TRT4 and 5. Am I missing something?

Hello, I am using the following code to convert and test TensorRT4.

import pycuda.driver as cuda
import pycuda.autoinit
 
from tensorrt.parsers import uffparser
import tensorrt as trt
import uff
import numpy as np
 
output_name = "Operation/basic_rnn_cell/Tanh"
uff_model = uff.from_tensorflow_frozen_model("output.pb", [output_name])
 
G_LOGGER = trt.infer.ConsoleLogger(trt.infer.LogSeverity.ERROR)
parser = uffparser.create_uff_parser()
parser.register_input("Test/x_holder", (1, 1, 1), 0)
parser.register_output(output_name)
engine = trt.utils.uff_to_trt_engine(G_LOGGER, uff_model, parser, 1, 1 << 20)
parser.destroy()
 
runtime = trt.infer.create_infer_runtime(G_LOGGER)
context = engine.create_execution_context()
 
inp = np.ones((1,1,1), dtype=np.float32)
output = np.empty(1, dtype=np.float32)
 
d_input = cuda.mem_alloc(inp.nbytes)
d_output = cuda.mem_alloc(output.nbytes)
 
bindings = [int(d_input), int(d_output)]
 
stream = cuda.Stream()
 
cuda.memcpy_htod_async(d_input, inp.tobytes(), stream)
context.enqueue(1, bindings, stream.handle, None)
cuda.memcpy_dtoh_async(output, d_output, stream)
stream.synchronize()
 
print(output)
 
context.destroy()
engine.destroy()
runtime.destroy()

And line ‘uff_model = uff.from_tensorflow_frozen_model(“output.pb”, [output_name])’ generates the same error.

Also when I enter ‘dpkg -l | grep nvinfer’ command, I don’t see any results.
I installed TensorRT4 through tar, maybe that’s the problem?

NVES · October 12, 2018, 3:51am

It’s expected that if you installed TRT with tar, you won’t see it as a dpkg item.

It’d help us debug the symptoms you are seeing if you can share a small package that contains the source, model, and dataset that can reproduce the error you are seeing. You can DM me if you don’t want to share publically.

skyser2003 · October 12, 2018, 4:55am

Currently I cannot even run the test code I wrote above, so I am not testing any existincg models.
May I ask which version of python and tensorflow you used to test my code?

NVES · October 15, 2018, 6:05pm

Hello,

I’m using

skyser2003 · October 16, 2018, 6:43am

Hello,
I looked into your initial answer again, and I think it is just raw tensorflow output,
not tensor rt output.

I am trying to follow this instruction, and if I am correct,
I need a frozen.pb file converted to uff file,
and then use that uff file to execute inference, is it?

The point I’m having problem doing is conversion to uff.
Document says you can convert it by either using ‘convert-to-uff’ command line tool or using python uff parser module,
but both produces the same error I wrote initially.

Also, I tried converting some simple cnn layer model, and it worked perfectly.
So I think that the problem is, tensorrt yet does not support rnn.

skyser2003 · October 16, 2018, 9:03am

I upgraded tensorflow version from 1.10.0 to 1.11.0, and original problem was solved, but other errors began to come out. I’ll update again if I cannot solve new errors.

Thanks.
