Installation
To unlock the potential of OpenVINO™, you’ll first need to install it. Here’s how:
- Choose your preferred distribution of OpenVINO from the official documentation.
- For quick installation, simply run the following command in your terminal:
pip install -U openvinoUnderstanding OpenVINO™: An Analogy
Imagine OpenVINO™ as a magical kitchen filled with high-tech appliances. Each appliance represents a different deep learning framework, like TensorFlow or PyTorch, that cooks up unique recipes (models). Just as a chef can take ingredients from multiple recipes to create a delicious dish, OpenVINO™ allows you to optimize and deploy your models from various frameworks into one seamless experience.
Tutorials and Examples
Once installed, it’s time to start using OpenVINO™! Here are a few resources to help you:
- Check out the OpenVINO Quickstart example for deploying your first model.
- Explore the OpenVINO Notebooks for optimizing popular models, such as:
Code Examples: Inference with PyTorch and TensorFlow
Here are easy-to-follow code examples demonstrating how to run inference using OpenVINO™:
PyTorch Model
import openvino as ov
import torch
import torchvision
# Load PyTorch model into memory
model = torch.hub.load(torchvision, 'shufflenet_v2_x1_0', weights='DEFAULT')
# Convert the model into OpenVINO model
example = torch.randn(1, 3, 224, 224)
ov_model = ov.convert_model(model, example_input=(example,))
# Compile the model for CPU device
core = ov.Core()
compiled_model = core.compile_model(ov_model, 'CPU')
# Infer the model on random data
output = compiled_model(input=example.numpy())TensorFlow Model
import numpy as np
import openvino as ov
import tensorflow as tf
# Load TensorFlow model into memory
model = tf.keras.applications.MobileNetV2(weights='imagenet')
# Convert the model into OpenVINO model
ov_model = ov.convert_model(model)
# Compile the model for CPU device
core = ov.Core()
compiled_model = core.compile_model(ov_model, 'CPU')
# Infer the model on random data
data = np.random.rand(1, 224, 224, 3)
output = compiled_model(input=data)OpenVINO™ Ecosystem
