2. Inference

2.1 Performance on MS COCO dataset (using pretrained DarknetWeights from https://github.com/AlexeyAB/darknet)

ONNX and TensorRT models are converted from Pytorch (TianXiaomo): Pytorch->ONNX->TensorRT. See following sections for more details of conversions.

2.2 Image input size for inference

Image input size is NOT restricted in 320 * 320, 416 * 416, 512 * 512 and 608 * 608. You can adjust your input sizes for a different input ratio, for example: 320 * 608. Larger input size could help detect smaller targets, but may be slower and GPU memory exhausting.

height = 320 + 96 * n, n in {0, 1, 2, 3, ...}
width  = 320 + 96 * m, m in {0, 1, 2, 3, ...}

2.3 Different inference options

  • Load the pretrained darknet model and darknet weights to do the inference (image size is configured in cfg file already)

    python demo.py -cfgfile <cfgFile> -weightfile <weightFile> -imgfile <imgFile>
    
  • Load pytorch weights (pth file) to do the inference

    python models.py <num_classes> <weightfile> <imgfile> <IN_IMAGE_H> <IN_IMAGE_W> <namefile(optional)>
    
  • Load converted ONNX file to do inference (See section 3 and 4)

  • Load converted TensorRT engine file to do inference (See section 5)

2.4 Inference output

There are 2 inference outputs.

  • One is locations of bounding boxes, its shape is [batch, num_boxes, 1, 4] which represents x1, y1, x2, y2 of each bounding box.
  • The other one is scores of bounding boxes which is of shape [batch, num_boxes, num_classes] indicating scores of all classes for each bounding box.

Until now, still a small piece of post-processing including NMS is required. We are trying to minimize time and complexity of post-processing.

3. Darknet2ONNX

  • This script is to convert the official pretrained darknet model into ONNX

  • Pytorch version Recommended:

    • Pytorch 1.4.0 for TensorRT 7.0 and higher
    • Pytorch 1.5.0 and 1.6.0 for TensorRT 7.1.2 and higher
  • Install onnxruntime

    pip install onnxruntime
    
  • Run python script to generate ONNX model and run the demo

    python demo_darknet2onnx.py <cfgFile> <namesFile> <weightFile> <imageFile> <batchSize>
    

3.1 Dynamic or static batch size

  • Positive batch size will generate ONNX model of static batch size, otherwise, batch size will be dynamic
    • Dynamic batch size will generate only one ONNX model
    • Static batch size will generate 2 ONNX models, one is for running the demo (batch_size=1)

4. Pytorch2ONNX

  • You can convert your trained pytorch model into ONNX using this script

  • Pytorch version Recommended:

    • Pytorch 1.4.0 for TensorRT 7.0 and higher
    • Pytorch 1.5.0 and 1.6.0 for TensorRT 7.1.2 and higher
  • Install onnxruntime

    pip install onnxruntime
    
  • Run python script to generate ONNX model and run the demo

    python demo_pytorch2onnx.py <weight_file> <image_path> <batch_size> <n_classes> <IN_IMAGE_H> <IN_IMAGE_W>
    

    For example:

    python demo_pytorch2onnx.py yolov4.pth dog.jpg 8 80 416 416
    

4.1 Dynamic or static batch size

  • Positive batch size will generate ONNX model of static batch size, otherwise, batch size will be dynamic
    • Dynamic batch size will generate only one ONNX model
    • Static batch size will generate 2 ONNX models, one is for running the demo (batch_size=1)

5. ONNX2TensorRT

  • TensorRT version Recommended: 7.0, 7.1

5.1 Convert from ONNX of static Batch size

  • Run the following command to convert YOLOv4 ONNX model into TensorRT engine

    trtexec --onnx=<onnx_file> --explicitBatch --saveEngine=<tensorRT_engine_file> --workspace=<size_in_megabytes> --fp16
    
    • Note: If you want to use int8 mode in conversion, extra int8 calibration is needed.

5.2 Convert from ONNX of dynamic Batch size

  • Run the following command to convert YOLOv4 ONNX model into TensorRT engine

    trtexec --onnx=<onnx_file> \
    --minShapes=input:<shape_of_min_batch> --optShapes=input:<shape_of_opt_batch> --maxShapes=input:<shape_of_max_batch> \
    --workspace=<size_in_megabytes> --saveEngine=<engine_file> --fp16
    
  • For example:

    trtexec --onnx=yolov4_-1_3_320_512_dynamic.onnx \
    --minShapes=input:1x3x320x512 --optShapes=input:4x3x320x512 --maxShapes=input:8x3x320x512 \
    --workspace=2048 --saveEngine=yolov4_-1_3_320_512_dynamic.engine --fp16
    

5.3 Run the demo

python demo_trt.py <tensorRT_engine_file> <input_image> <input_H> <input_W>
  • This demo here only works when batchSize is dynamic (1 should be within dynamic range) or batchSize=1, but you can update this demo a little for other dynamic or static batch sizes.

  • Note1: input_H and input_W should agree with the input size in the original ONNX file.

  • Note2: extra NMS operations are needed for the tensorRT output. This demo uses python NMS code from tool/utils.py.

6. ONNX2Tensorflow

7. ONNX2TensorRT and DeepStream Inference

  1. Compile the DeepStream Nvinfer Plugin
    cd DeepStream
    make 
  1. Build a TRT Engine.

For single batch,

trtexec --onnx=<onnx_file> --explicitBatch --saveEngine=<tensorRT_engine_file> --workspace=<size_in_megabytes> --fp16

For multi-batch,

trtexec --onnx=<onnx_file> --explicitBatch --shapes=input:Xx3xHxW --optShapes=input:Xx3xHxW --maxShapes=input:Xx3xHxW --minShape=input:1x3xHxW --saveEngine=<tensorRT_engine_file> --fp16

Note :The maxShapes could not be larger than model original shape.

  1. Write the deepstream config file for the TRT Engine.
