mxnet

Prepare for train.

Example command:

PYTHONPATH=. /data2/zyx/yks/anaconda3/bin/python3 /data3/zyx/yks/mx-openpose/scripts/train_gluon_cpm.py \
--dataset-root=/data3/zyx/yks/dataset/coco2017 --gpus=7,8 --disable-fusion --backbone=res50

you may want to change dataset root and gpus by yourself.

Demo

After you have trained your own model or download the pretrained model, you can use scripts/evaluate.py to evaluate the model.

Example command:

PYTHONPATH=. /data2/zyx/yks/anaconda3/bin/python3 /data3/zyx/yks/mx-openpose/scripts/evaluate.py \
--resume=pretrained/resnet50-cpm-resnet-cropped-flipped_rotated-47-0.0.params \
--dataset-root="/data3/zyx/yks/dataset/coco2017" \
--gpus="0" --stage=0 --viz

Also, you may want to change resume, dataset root and gpus by yourself.
