tflite-input-output-rewriter

This tool displays tflite signatures and rewrites the input/output OP name to the name of the signature. There is no need to install TensorFlow or TFLite.

Environment

• Ubuntu 20.04+
• flatbuffers-compiler (Note: Official binaries are degraded by lack of precision when processing INT8 quantized tflite files.)
• requests

Motivation

The purpose is to solve the following problems by forcibly rewriting tflite's input/output OP names.

• When TFLite models are generated, TensorFlow automatically prefixes the input OP name with serving_default_, resulting in very difficult-to-read models. Also, an unnecessary index :n is added to the end of the name.

  

• Also, the output OP name is arbitrarily rewritten to the unintelligible StatefulPartitionedCall:n.

  

Execution

1. Docker

   $ docker login ghcr.io
   
   Username (xxxx): {Enter}
   Password: {Personal Access Token}
   Login Succeeded
   
   $ docker run --rm -it \
   -v `pwd`:/home/user \
   ghcr.io/pinto0309/tflite-input-output-rewriter:latest
   
   $ tfliteiorewriter -i xxxx.tflite
   

2. Local

   $ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y flatbuffers-compiler
   # Other than debian/ubuntu: https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/releases
   $ pip install -U tfliteiorewriter
   
   $ tfliteiorewriter -i xxxx.tflite
   

usage: tfliteiorewriter
  [-h]
  -i INPUT_TFLITE_FILE_PATH
  [-v]
  [-o OUTPUT_FOLDER_PATH]
  [-r RENAME RENAME]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help
      show this help message and exit

  -i INPUT_TFLITE_FILE_PATH, --input_tflite_file_path INPUT_TFLITE_FILE_PATH
      Input tflite file path.
      If `--rename` is not used, the input/output OP name is overwritten with the definition
      information in signature_defs.

  -v, --view
      Runs in a mode that only displays the signature_defs recorded in the model.
      This mode does not rewrite the model.

  -o OUTPUT_FOLDER_PATH, --output_folder_path OUTPUT_FOLDER_PATH
      Output tflite file folder path.

  -r RENAME RENAME, --rename RENAME RENAME
      Replace with any specified name.
      --rename {from_name1} {to_name1} --rename {from_name2} {to_name2} ...
      --rename serving_default_input_1:0 aaa --rename StatefulPartitionedCall:0 bbb

Execution Result

If this tool is run without additional options, it will overwrite the input/output OP names for Netron display with the input/output name definition information in signature_defs.

View Mode Result

tfliteiorewriter -i xxxx.tflite -v

Rename Mode Result

Replace with any name by specifying {From} and {To} in the --renmae (-r) option.
