Set of utilities to work easier with Bender.

Currently there's support for TensorFlow and Caffe, but we are working on more stuff!

Works on Python 2.7.+ and 3.+, with Tensorflow 1.2+.

To install:

pip install benderthon

TensorFlow is required too. The simplest way to install it is:

pip install tensorflow

There are other ways, see Installing Tensorflow. Benderthon does not install it by default to let the usage of a custom installation.

Utility to convert TensorFlow checkpoints into minimal frozen graphs.

To take the checkpoint checkpoint_path.ckpt, whose output is yielded by the node named Tanh, and save it to graph_with_weights.pb:

benderthon tf-freeze checkpoint_path.ckpt graph_with_weights.pb Tanh

If you don't have a checkpoint or prefer to run it from code, this is the way to go. This is the same example as above but from code:

from benderthon import tf_freeze

// …

with tf.Session() as sess:
    // …

    tf_freeze.freeze(sess, 'graph_with_weights.pb', ['Tanh'])

The file sample.py contains a network example for MNIST dataset with 2 convolutional layers and 2 dense layers. If you run it, it will generate a minimal protobuf for with the weights frozen to run in Bender in output/mnist.pb:

./sample.py

The generated file occupies half the original checkpoints (26MB to 13MB).

The script will also generate checkpoints files with prefix checkpoints/mnist.ckpt. So you could have generated the protobuf from it:

benderthon tf-freeze checkpoints/mnist.ckpt output/mnist.pb Prediction

You can also get only the graph, which occupies just 13kB:

benderthon tf-freeze --no-weights checkpoints/mnist.ckpt output/mnist_only_graph.pb Prediction

To save the weights in a separate path for later processing:

benderthon tf-freeze --only-weights checkpoints/mnist.ckpt weights/ Prediction

This module cannot be accessed from the command line utility, it should be used from Python code, importing benderthon.caffe_freeze.

You need caffeflow package installed first:

pip install -e git://github.com/xmartlabs/caffeflow.git@4618f89#egg=caffeflow

This utility is under development and the API is not stable. So, do not heavily rely on it.

To install locally you should do ./setup.py install, but first have pandoc and pypandoc installed.
