This Project is all about building a Deep Learning Pipe Line to process the real world , user supplied Images. Given an Image of a dog the algorithm will identify an estimate of the canine’s breed. If supplied an image of a human, the code will identify the resembling dog breed.(TensorFlow Version)
Welcome to the Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) project. The project focuses on building a dog breed identification pipeline that can be used within a web or mobile app to process real-world, user-supplied images.Given an image of a dog, your algorithm will identify an estimate of the canine’s breed. If supplied an image of a human, the code will identify the resembling dog breed.
- Clone the repository and navigate to the downloaded folder.
git clone https://github.com/chaithanya21/Dog-Breed-Classification-TF.git
cd Dog-Breed-Classification-TF
-
Download the dog dataset. Unzip the folder and place it in the repo, at location
path/to/Dog-Breed-Classification-TF/dogImages
. -
Download the human dataset. Unzip the folder and place it in the repo, at location
path/to/Dog-Breed-Classification-TF/lfw
.If you are using a Windows machine, you are encouraged to use 7zip to extract the folder. -
Donwload the VGG-16 bottleneck features for the dog dataset. Place it in the repo, at location
path/to/Dog-Breed-Classification-TF/bottleneck_features

If you plan to install TensorFlow with GPU support on your local machine, follow the guide to install the necessary NVIDIA software on your system. If you are using an EC2 GPU instance, you can skip this step.
-
If you are running the project on your local machine (and not using AWS), create (and activate) a new environment.
- Linux (to install with GPU support, change
requirements/dog-linux.yml
torequirements/dog-linux-gpu.yml
):
conda env create -f requirements/dog-linux.yml source activate Dog-Breed-Classification-TF
- Mac (to install with GPU support, change
requirements/dog-mac.yml
torequirements/dog-mac-gpu.yml
):
conda env create -f requirements/dog-mac.yml source activate Dog-Breed-Classification-TF
NOTE: Some Mac users may need to install a different version of OpenCV
conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/menpo opencv3
- Windows (to install with GPU support, change
requirements/dog-windows.yml
torequirements/dog-windows-gpu.yml
):
conda env create -f requirements/dog-windows.yml activate Dog-Breed-Classification-TF
- Linux (to install with GPU support, change
7.If you are running the project on your local machine (and not using AWS) and Step 6 throws errors, try this alternative step to create your environment.
- __Linux__ or __Mac__ (to install with __GPU support__, change `requirements/requirements.txt` to `requirements/requirements-gpu.txt`):
```
conda create --name Dog-Breed-Classification-TF python=3.5
source activate Dog-Breed-Classification-TF
pip install -r requirements/requirements.txt
```
**NOTE:** Some Mac users may need to install a different version of OpenCV
```
conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/menpo opencv3
```
- __Windows__ (to install with __GPU support__, change `requirements/requirements.txt` to `requirements/requirements-gpu.txt`):
```
conda create --name Dog-Breed-Classification-TF python=3.5
activate Dog-Breed-Classification-TF
pip install -r requirements/requirements.txt
```
- (Optional) If you are using AWS, install Tensorflow.
sudo python3 -m pip install -r requirements/requirements-gpu.txt
- Switch Keras backend to TensorFlow.
- Linux or Mac:
KERAS_BACKEND=tensorflow python -c "from keras import backend"
- Windows:
set KERAS_BACKEND=tensorflow python -c "from keras import backend"
- Linux or Mac:
- (Optional) If you are running the project on your local machine (and not using AWS), create an IPython kernel for the
dog-project
environment.
python -m ipykernel install --user --name Dog-Breed-Classification-TF --display-name "Dog-Breed-Classification-TF"
- Open the notebook.
jupyter notebook dog_app.ipynb
- (Optional) If you are running the project on your local machine (and not using AWS), before running code, change the kernel to match the dog-project environment by using the drop-down menu (Kernel > Change kernel > dog-project). Then, follow the instructions in the notebook.
The Model acheived a Test accuracy of 1.3% when Trained Using a Convolutional Neural Network From Scratch , Using Data Augmentation and Batch Normalization Techniques with Much Deeper Architrecture Can help to improve the model performance.
The Model acheived a Test Accuracy of 83% when Trained using a Pre-Trained Resnet50 Model for 25 epochs, The Performance of the model can be improved using othet pre-trained models such as Xception and Inception Networks.
