nd1511 / MMdnn

MMdnn is a set of tools to help users inter-operate among different deep learning frameworks. E.g. model conversion and visualization. Convert models between Caffe, Keras, MXNet, Tensorflow, CNTK, PyTorch Onnx and CoreML.

MMdnn MMdnn

PyPi Version License Linux

A comprehensive, cross-framework solution to convert, visualize and diagnose deep neural network models. The "MM" in MMdnn stands for model management and "dnn" is an acronym for deep neural network.

Major features

  • Find model

  • Conversion

    • We implement an universal convertor to convert DNN models between frameworks, which means you can train on one framework and deploy on another.
  • Retrain

    • In convertor, we can generate some training/inference code snippet to simplify the retrain/evaluate work.
  • Deployment

    • We provide some guidelines to help you deploy your models to other hardware platform.

    • We provide a guide to help you accelerate inference with TensorRT.

Related Projects

Targeting at openness and advancing state-of-art technology, Microsoft Research (MSR) had also released few other open source projects.

  • OpenPAI : an open source platform that provides complete AI model training and resource management capabilities, it is easy to extend and supports on-premise, cloud and hybrid environments in various scale.
  • NNI : An open source AutoML toolkit for neural architecture search and hyper-parameter tuning.

We encourage researchers and students leverage these projects to accelerate the AI development and research.

Installation

Install manually

You can get stable version of MMdnn by

pip install mmdnn

And make sure to have Python installed or you can try the newest version by

pip install -U git+https://github.com/Microsoft/MMdnn.git@master

Install with docker image

MMdnn provides a docker image, which packages MMdnn, deep learning frameworks we support and other dependencies in one image. You can easily get the image in several steps:

  1. Install Docker Community Edition(CE)

    Learn more about how to install docker

  2. Pull MMdnn docker image

    docker pull mmdnn/mmdnn:cpu.small
  3. Run image in interactive mode

    docker run -it mmdnn/mmdnn:cpu.small

Features

Across the industry and academia, there are a number of existing frameworks available for developers and researchers to design a model, where each framework has its own network structure definition and saving model format. The gaps between frameworks impede the inter-operation of the models.

We provide a model converter to help developers convert models between frameworks through an intermediate representation format.

Tested models

The model conversion between currently supported frameworks is tested on some ImageNet models.

Models Caffe Keras TensorFlow CNTK MXNet PyTorch CoreML ONNX

Inception V4 o
ResNet V1 × o
ResNet V2
MobileNet V1 × o
MobileNet V2 × o
Xception o ×

Usage

One command to achieve the conversion. Using TensorFlow ResNet V2 152 to PyTorch as our example.

$ mmdownload -f tensorflow -n resnet_v2_152 -o ./
$ mmconvert -sf tensorflow -in imagenet_resnet_v2_152.ckpt.meta -iw imagenet_resnet_v2_152.ckpt --dstNodeName MMdnn_Output -df pytorch -om tf_resnet_to_pth.pth

Done.

On-going frameworks

  • Torch7 (help wanted)
  • Chainer (help wanted)

On-going Models

  • Face Detection
  • Semantic Segmentation
  • Image Style Transfer
  • Object Detection
  • RNN

You can use the MMdnn model visualizer and submit your IR json file to visualize your model. In order to run the commands below, you will need to install requests, keras, and TensorFlow using your favorite package manager.

Use the Keras "inception_v3" model as an example again.

  1. Download the pre-trained models
$ mmdownload -f keras -n inception_v3
  1. Convert the pre-trained model files into intermediate representation
$ mmtoir -f keras -w imagenet_inception_v3.h5 -o keras_inception_v3
  1. Open the MMdnn model visualizer and choose file keras_inception_v3.json

Intermediate Representation

The intermediate representation stores the network architecture in protobuf binary and pre-trained weights in NumPy native format.

[Note!] Currently the IR weights data is in NHWC (channel last) format.

Details are in ops.txt and graph.proto. New operators and any comments are welcome.

Frameworks

We are working on other frameworks conversion and visualization, such as PyTorch, CoreML and so on. We're investigating more RNN related operators. Any contributions and suggestions are welcome! Details in Contribution Guideline.
