Aidge
The Eclipse Aidge platform is a comprehensive solution for fast and accurate Deep Neural Network (DNN) simulation and full and automated DNN-based applications building. The platform integrates database construction, data pre-processing, network building, benchmarking and hardware export to various targets. It is particularly useful for DNN design and exploration, allowing simple and fast prototyping of DNN with different topologies. It is possible to define and learn multiple network topology variations and compare the performances (in terms of recognition rate and computationnal cost) automatically. Export hardware targets include CPU, DSP and GPU with OpenMP, OpenCL, Cuda, cuDNN and TensorRT programming models as well as custom hardware IP code generation with High-Level Synthesis for FPGA and dedicated configurable DNN accelerator IP.
Installation
Build on Linux using pip
Each Aidge module are built independantly from one another. To install Aidge on Linux using pip, follow those steps :
- Create your python environnement with python >= 3.7. For example using virtualenv :
virtualenv -p python3.8 py_env_aidge
source py_env_aidge/bin/activate- Set the desired install path :
export AIDGE_INSTALL = '<path_to_aidge>/install'- First build aidge_core :
cd aidge/aidge_core/
pip install . -v- Then build other modules (for example aidge_backend_cpu, aidge_onnx) :
cd aidge/aidge_backend_cpu
pip install . -v Docker Image
Feel free to use one of the Dockerfiles available in the docker folder.
To build the image, run where your DockerFile is
docker build --pull --rm -f "name_of_os.Dockerfile" -t aidge:myenv .Then to run a container, run
docker run --name mycontainer aidge:myenvContributing
