Description

This document has instructions for running ResNet50* bfloat16 inference using Intel® Extension for PyTorch*.

Datasets

The ImageNet validation dataset is used when testing accuracy. The inference scripts use synthetic data, so no dataset is needed.

Download and extract the ImageNet2012 dataset from http://www.image-net.org/, then move validation images to labeled subfolders, using the valprep.sh shell script

The accuracy script looks for a folder named val, so after running the data prep script, your folder structure should look something like this:

imagenet
└── val
    ├── ILSVRC2012_img_val.tar
    ├── n01440764
    │   ├── ILSVRC2012_val_00000293.JPEG
    │   ├── ILSVRC2012_val_00002138.JPEG
    │   ├── ILSVRC2012_val_00003014.JPEG
    │   ├── ILSVRC2012_val_00006697.JPEG
    │   └── ...
    └── ...

The folder that contains the val directory should be set as the DATASET_DIR when running accuracy (for example: export DATASET_DIR=/home//imagenet).

Quick Start Scripts

Script name Description
bf16_online_inference.sh Runs online inference using synthetic data (batch_size=1).
bf16_batch_inference.sh Runs batch inference using synthetic data (batch_size=128).
bf16_accuracy.sh Measures the model accuracy (batch_size=128).

Bare Metal

To run on bare metal, the following prerequisites must be installed in your environment:

Download and untar the model package and then run a quick start script.

# Optional: to run accuracy script
export DATASET_DIR=<path to the preprocessed imagenet dataset>

# Download and extract the model package
wget https://storage.googleapis.com/intel-optimized-tensorflow/models/v2_3_0/pytorch-resnet50-bfloat16-inference.tar.gz
tar -xzf pytorch-resnet50-bfloat16-inference.tar.gz
cd pytorch-resnet50-bfloat16-inference

bash quickstart/<script name>.sh
