Fnajjar commented 6 years ago

I want to test the Pipe CNN on an Attila Arria 10 GX card with an Intel SDK open CL v17.1. I did the implentation and it's working! Stil, I want to do the demo on my card: hwo can I do that?

thank you very much for the further explanation.

Hello @Fnajjar

Install the Intel SDK for openCL. This guide might help you.(https://www.altera.com/en_US/pdfs/literature/hb/opencl-sdk/aocl_getting_started.pdf)

Install OpenCV.

As this repo supports Intel opencl v16.1, make necessary changes for v17.1.

Download the imgaenet 2012 validation set.

Thank you very much for your answer @manojrohit, but how can I download the imgaenet 2012 validation set?? I didn't find it in the ImageNet website unfortunatly

manojrohit commented 6 years ago

You can download by registering in http://www.image-net.org/download-images.

Fnajjar commented 6 years ago

Thank you @manojrohit,
So ones I upload the validation images 2012 from the imageNet, do I extract the folder in the PipeCNN-master/data/imagenet? Is there modifications to make in the file's code?

manojrohit commented 6 years ago

If you go through the host cpp file, in line 71 you can see char picture_file_path_head[100] ="/home/dwang/Work/imagenet/ilsvrc2012/ILSVRC2012_img_val/ILSVRC2012val";

You can extract the validation data and change the path in host program.

@manojrohit thank you so much it's finally working that was so helpful :)

Fnajjar commented 6 years ago

Now, since it's working with the images data base, I am wondering, Is the PipeCNN working on a video stream??

doonny commented 6 years ago

Definitely YES : )

Fnajjar commented 6 years ago

Thank you @doonny for this great news! :) Do you have previous work or some advices on how shall I proceed? Thank you very much for the help

roddregs commented 6 years ago

@Fnajjar @manojrohit @doonny I was using DE1-SoC Cyclone V board and successfully compiled and run in the board the PipeCNN using PLATFORM=arm32 and flow=hw which only read one image file. And now, I tried to enable OpenCV to experiment loading multiple images from Imagenet 2012 validation set. I set USE_OPENCV = 1 in the Makefile and installed OpenCV 2.4.9 in my PC (Ubuntu 16.04). When I compiled, I got the following error that says: libopencv_core.so :file not recognized: File format not recognized

image Any suggestion on how to solve this error? Is OpenCV 2.4.9 not compatible with the current set-up of PipeCNN? Thank you very much.

First, you need to cross-compile your opencv lib for arm. Your opencv installed is for PC not for arm

Hi Sir, how to cross compile OpenCV lib for arm?

I am assuming this problem has been solved.
