eIQ Sample Apps - Object Recognition using OpenCV DNN This Lab 3 explains how to get started with OpenCV DNN applications demos on i.MX8 board using eIQ ™ ML Software Development Environment. eIQ Sample Apps - Overview eIQ Sample Apps - Introduction Get the source code available on code aurora: OpenCV DNN example - File-Based and MIPI Camera OpenCV Inference The OpenCV offers a unitary solution for both neural network inference (DNN module) and classic machine learning algorithms (ML module). Moreover, it includes many computer vision functions, making it easier to build complex machine learning applications in a short amount of time and without having dependencies on other libraries. The OpenCV DNN model is basically an inference engine. It does not aim to provide any model training capabilities. For training, one should use dedicated solutions, such as machine learning frameworks. The inference engine from OpenCV supports a wide set of input model formats: TensorFlow, Caffe, Torch/PyTorch. Comparison with Arm NN Arm NN is a library deeply focused on neural networks. It offers acceleration for Arm Neon, while Vivante GPUs are not currently supported. Arm NN does not support classical non-neural machine learning algorithms. OpenCV is a more complex library focused on computer vision. Besides image and vision specific algorithms, it offers support for neural network machine learning, but also for traditional non-neural machine learning algorithms. OpenCV is the best choice in case your application needs a neural network inference engine, but also other computer vision functionalities. Setting Up the Board Step 1 - Create the following folders and grant them permissions as it follows: root@imx8mmevk:# mkdir -p /opt/opencv/model
root@imx8mmevk:# mkdir -p /opt/opencv/media
root@imx8mmevk:# chmod 777 /opt/opencv Step 2 - To easily deploy the demos to the board, get the boards IP address using ifconfig command, then set the IMX_INET_ADDR environment variable as it follows: $ export IMX_INET_ADDR= Step 3 - In the target device, export the required variables: root@imx8mmevk:~# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib
root@imx8mmevk:~# export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/ Setting Up the Host Step 1 - Download the application from eIQ Sample Apps. Step 2 - Get the models and dataset. The following command-line creates the needed folder structure for the demos and retrieves all needed data and model files for the demo: $ mkdir -p model
$ wget -qN https://github.com/diegohdorta/models/raw/master/caffe/MobileNetSSD_deploy.caffemodel -P model/
$ wget -qN https://github.com/diegohdorta/models/raw/master/caffe/MobileNetSSD_deploy.prototxt -P model/ Step 3 - Deploy the built files to the board: $ scp -r src/* model/ media/ root@${IMX_INET_ADDR}:/opt/opencv OpenCV DNN Applications This application was based on: SSD: Single Shot MultiBox Detector. Caffe SSD Implementation. 1 - OpenCV DNN example: File-Based The folder structure must be equal to: ├── file.py
├── camera.py
├── media
└── ...
├── model
│├── MobileNetSSD_deploy.caffemodel
│└── MobileNetSSD_deploy.prototxt This example runs a single picture for example, but you pass as many pictures as you want and save them inside media/ folder. The application tries to recognize all the objects in the picture. Step 1 - For copying new images to the media/ folder: root@imx8mmevk:/opt/opencv/media# cp . Step 2 - Run the example image: root@imx8mmevk:/opt/opencv# ./file.py NOTE: If GPU is available, the example shows: [INFO:0] Initialize OpenCL runtime This demo runs the inference using a Caffe model to recognize a few type of objects for all the images inside the media/ folder. It includes labels for each recognized object in the input images. The processed images are available in the media-labeled/ folder. See before and after labeling: Step 3 - Display the labeled image with the following line: root@imx8mmevk:/opt/opencv/media-labeled# gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location= ! jpegdec ! imagefreeze ! autovideosink 2 - OpenCV DNN example: MIPI Camera This example is the same as above, except that it uses a camera input. It enables the MIPI camera and runs an inference on each captured frame, then displays it in a window interface in real time: root@imx8mmevk:/opt/opencv# ./camera.py 3 - OpenCV DNN example: MIPI Camera improved This example differs from the above due the additional support of GStreamer applied to it. Using the Leaky Bucket algorithm idea, the GStreamer pipeline enables the camera to continue performing its own thread (bucket overflow when full), even if the frame was not processed by the inference thread (bucket water capacity). As a result of this Leaky Bucket algorithm, this demo has smooth camera video at the expense of having some frames dropped in the inference process. root@imx8mmevk:/opt/opencv# ./camera_improved.py Go to the eIQ Sample Apps - Face Recognition using TF Lite. i.MX 8 Re: eIQ Sample Apps - Object Recognition using OpenCV DNN Hi coindu, As vanessamaegima said before, we do not have a validated solution for video file source yet, but I can anticipate that using a video file directly on OpenCV VideoCapture property will return the worst possible results. So please, try applying the video file to a GStreamer pipeline, such as the example below: filesrc location=video_device.mp4 typefind=true ! decodebin ! imxvideoconvert_g2d ! video/x-raw,format=RGBA,width={},height={} ! videoconvert ! appsink sync=false BR, Marco Re: eIQ Sample Apps - Object Recognition using OpenCV DNN I reference the camera_improved.py demo, use video to instead of the v4l2 as input . The fps of video is 15, it means the display on the screen time is 0.067sec. But it will cost 0.6sec to parse one frame,which frame is 480x272. So object recognition block diagram will be delayed than video. I want to parse the 10th frame when the first frame of the video is played. But this method cannot move to a certain frame. Re: eIQ Sample Apps - Object Recognition using OpenCV DNN Hi coindu, We provided a demo with improved performance in step 3 (3 - OpenCV DNN example: MIPI Camera improved). The same approach was not validated with video input yet. Could you please give it a try and see if it helps? marcofranchi, FYI. Thanks, Vanessa Re: eIQ Sample Apps - Object Recognition using OpenCV DNN hi： I try to test this example with video.However, I found that the time for dnn to parse a frame is almost close to the display time of 10 frames of video. def dnn_parse(nn,frame,multipe=1): height,width,color_lane=frame.shape if multipe != 1: height = int(height*multipe) width = int(width*multipe) print "h:{}w:{}".format(height,width) frame=opencv.resize(frame,(height,width)) start_time=time.time() blob = opencv.dnn.blobFromImage(frame,0.009718,(height,width),127.5) nn.setInput(blob) det=nn.forward() end_time=time.time() print "height{} width{} time{}".format(height,width,end_time-start_time) h:136w:240height136 width240 time0.264429092407height272 width480 time0.620328903198h:544w:960height544 width960 time2.25029802322 Then consider directly analyzing N * k frames when dnn analysis (k =, 1, 2, 3 ...). But found that opencv does not support frame skipping and calculating the total number of video frames. #!/usr/bin/env python # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- import cv2 as opencv import time if __name__ == "__main__": cap = opencv.VideoCapture('car.mp4') opencv.namedWindow("appFrame") frame_count = cap.get(opencv.CAP_PROP_FRAME_COUNT) print "frame_count.{}".format(frame_count) cap.set(opencv.CAP_PROP_POS_FRAMES,200) ret,frame = cap.read() opencv.imshow("appFrame",frame) opencv.waitKey(0) opencv.destroyAllWindows() cap.release() (python:4431): GStreamer-CRITICAL **: gst_query_set_position: assertion 'format == g_value_get_enum (gst_structure_id_get_value (s, GST_QUARK (FORMAT)))' failed Using Wayland-EGL Using the 'xdg-shell-v6' shell integration frame_count.-1.0 WARN: h264bsdDecodeSeiParameters not valid How to solve this problem？ Re: eIQ Sample Apps - Object Recognition using OpenCV DNN Thanks man.. And one more thing, does Opencv perform inference on GPU or CPU?
