YOLOX-ti-lite Object Detector in TFLite

This repository is a fork of TexasInstruments/edgeai-yolox.

Based on the TexasInstruments' repository, following new features and minor modification were added:

Pretrained models

TFLite models exported with this repository are available from my GoogleDrive.

Requirements

Setup

Download COCO dataset:

./scripts/get_coco.sh

Download YOLOX-nanoti-lite pretrained weight:

wget http://software-dl.ti.com/jacinto7/esd/modelzoo/latest/models/vision/detection/coco/edgeai-yolox/yolox_nano_ti_lite_26p1_41p8_checkpoint.pth

Export PyTorch to ONNX

Build and run torch2onnx Docker container:

docker compose build torch2onnx
docker compose run --rm torch2onnx bash

Note that (torch2onnx) in the code blocks below means you have to run the command in torch2onnx container.

Evaluate PyTorch model (optional):

(torch2onnx) python tools/eval.py -n yolox_nano_ti_lite -c yolox_nano_ti_lite_26p1_41p8_checkpoint.pth --conf 0.001

Expected result:

 Average Precision  (AP) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area=   all | maxDets=100 ] = 0.262
 Average Precision  (AP) @[ IoU=0.50      | area=   all | maxDets=100 ] = 0.421
 Average Precision  (AP) @[ IoU=0.75      | area=   all | maxDets=100 ] = 0.273
 Average Precision  (AP) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area= small | maxDets=100 ] = 0.095
 Average Precision  (AP) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area=medium | maxDets=100 ] = 0.280
 Average Precision  (AP) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area= large | maxDets=100 ] = 0.405
 Average Recall     (AR) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area=   all | maxDets=  1 ] = 0.245
 Average Recall     (AR) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area=   all | maxDets= 10 ] = 0.391
 Average Recall     (AR) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area=   all | maxDets=100 ] = 0.426
 Average Recall     (AR) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area= small | maxDets=100 ] = 0.174
 Average Recall     (AR) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area=medium | maxDets=100 ] = 0.478
 Average Recall     (AR) @[ IoU=0.50:0.95 | area= large | maxDets=100 ] = 0.620

Export PyTorch to ONNX:

(torch2onnx) python tools/export_onnx.py -n yolox_nano_ti_lite -c yolox_nano_ti_lite_26p1_41p8_checkpoint.pth --output-name yolox_nano_ti_lite.onnx

Run inference on a sample image with ONNX (optional):

(torch2onnx) python demo/ONNXRuntime/onnx_inference.py -m yolox_nano_ti_lite.onnx -i assets/dog.jpg -o tmp/onnx/ -s 0.6 --input_shape 416,416

Export ONNX to TFLite

Build and run onnx2tf Docker container:

docker compose build onnx2tf
docker compose run --rm onnx2tf bash

Note that (onnx2tf) in the code blocks below means you have to run the command in onnx2tf container.

Generate calibration data from COCO train-set (can be skipped if you don't need quantized TFLite models):

(onnx2tf) python demo/TFLite/generate_calib_data.py --img-size 416 416 --n-img 200 -o calib_data_416x416_n200.npy

Export ONNX to TFLite:

# If you need quantized TFlite models:
(onnx2tf) onnx2tf -i yolox_nano_ti_lite.onnx -oiqt -qcind images calib_data_416x416_n200.npy "[[[[0,0,0]]]]" "[[[[1,1,1]]]]"

# if you don't need quantized TFLite models:
(onnx2tf) onnx2tf -i yolox_nano_ti_lite.onnx

Run inference on a sample image with TFLite:

# fp32:
(onnx2tf) TFLITE_PATH=saved_model/yolox_nano_ti_lite_float32.tflite
# fp16:
(onnx2tf) TFLITE_PATH=saved_model/yolox_nano_ti_lite_float16.tflite
# int8 static quantized:
(onnx2tf) TFLITE_PATH=saved_model/yolox_nano_ti_lite_integer_quant.tflite
# check under `saved_model/` for some other models.

(onnx2tf) python demo/TFLite/tflite_inference.py -m $TFLITE_PATH -i assets/dog.jpg -o tmp/tflite/ -s 0.6
