Load Caffe framework models {#tutorial_dnn_googlenet} =========================== Introduction ------------ In this tutorial you will learn how to use opencv_dnn module for image classification by using GoogLeNet trained network from [Caffe model zoo](http://caffe.berkeleyvision.org/model_zoo.html). We will demonstrate results of this example on the following picture. ![Buran space shuttle](images/space_shuttle.jpg) Source Code ----------- We will be using snippets from the example application, that can be downloaded [here](https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/master/samples/dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp). @include dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp Explanation ----------- -# Firstly, download GoogLeNet model files: [bvlc_googlenet.prototxt ](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/opencv/opencv/master/samples/data/dnn/bvlc_googlenet.prototxt) and [bvlc_googlenet.caffemodel](http://dl.caffe.berkeleyvision.org/bvlc_googlenet.caffemodel) Also you need file with names of [ILSVRC2012](http://image-net.org/challenges/LSVRC/2012/browse-synsets) classes: [synset_words.txt](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/opencv/opencv/master/samples/data/dnn/synset_words.txt). Put these files into working dir of this program example. -# Read and initialize network using path to .prototxt and .caffemodel files @snippet dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp Read and initialize network -# Check that network was read successfully @snippet dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp Check that network was read successfully -# Read input image and convert to the blob, acceptable by GoogleNet @snippet dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp Prepare blob Firstly, we resize the image and change its channel sequence order. Now image is actually a 3-dimensional array with 224x224x3 shape. Next, we convert the image to 4-dimensional blob (so-called batch) with 1x3x224x224 shape by using special cv::dnn::blobFromImages constructor. -# Pass the blob to the network @snippet dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp Set input blob In bvlc_googlenet.prototxt the network input blob named as "data", therefore this blob labeled as ".data" in opencv_dnn API. Other blobs labeled as "name_of_layer.name_of_layer_output". -# Make forward pass @snippet dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp Make forward pass During the forward pass output of each network layer is computed, but in this example we need output from "prob" layer only. -# Determine the best class @snippet dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp Gather output We put the output of "prob" layer, which contain probabilities for each of 1000 ILSVRC2012 image classes, to the `prob` blob. And find the index of element with maximal value in this one. This index correspond to the class of the image. -# Print results @snippet dnn/caffe_googlenet.cpp Print results For our image we get: > Best class: #812 'space shuttle' > > Probability: 99.6378%
