This demo showcases inference of Classification networks using Python* Model API and Async Pipeline.
On startup, the application reads command line parameters and loads a classification model to OpenVINO™ Runtime plugin for execution. Upon getting a frame from the OpenCV VideoCapture, it performs inference and displays the results.
You can stop the demo by pressing "Esc" or "Q" button. After that, the average metrics values will be printed to the console.
NOTE: By default, Open Model Zoo demos expect input with BGR channels order. If you trained your model to work with RGB order, you need to manually rearrange the default channels order in the demo application or reconvert your model using the Model Optimizer tool with the
--reverse_input_channels
argument specified. For more information about the argument, refer to When to Reverse Input Channels section of [Embedding Preprocessing Computation](@ref openvino_docs_MO_DG_Additional_Optimization_Use_Cases).
The demo utilizes model wrappers, adapters and pipelines from Python* Model API.
The generalized interface of wrappers with its unified results representation provides the support of multiple different classification model topologies in one demo.
The list of models supported by the demo is in <omz_dir>/demos/classification_demo/python/models.lst
file.
This file can be used as a parameter for Model Downloader and Converter to download and, if necessary, convert models to OpenVINO IR format (*.xml + *.bin).
An example of using the Model Downloader:

NOTE: Refer to the tables Intel's Pre-Trained Models Device Support and Public Pre-Trained Models Device Support for the details on models inference support at different devices.
If you want to see classification results, you must use "-labels" flags to specify .txt file containing lists of classes and labels.
and <omz_dir>/data/dataset_classes/imagenet_2012.txt
labels file with all other models supported by the demo.
Running the application with the -h
option yields the following usage message:

Options:
-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
-m MODEL, --model MODEL
Required. Path to an .xml file with a trained model or address of model inference service if using OVMS adapter.
--adapter {openvino,ovms}
Optional. Specify the model adapter. Default is openvino.
-i INPUT, --input INPUT
Required. An input to process. The input must be a single image, a folder of images, video file or camera id.
-d DEVICE, --device DEVICE
Optional. Specify a device to infer on (the list of available devices is shown below). Use '-d HETERO:<comma-separated_devices_list>' format to specify HETERO plugin. Use '-d MULTI:<comma-separated_devices_list>'
format to specify MULTI plugin. Default is CPU
Common model options:
--labels LABELS Optional. Labels mapping file.
-topk {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}
Optional. Number of top results. Default value is 5. Must be from 1 to 10.
--layout LAYOUT Optional. Model inputs layouts. Ex. NCHW or input0:NCHW,input1:NC in case of more than one input.
Inference options:
-nireq NUM_INFER_REQUESTS, --num_infer_requests NUM_INFER_REQUESTS
Optional. Number of infer requests
-nstreams NUM_STREAMS, --num_streams NUM_STREAMS
Optional. Number of streams to use for inference on the CPU or/and GPU in throughput mode (for HETERO and MULTI device cases use format <device1>:<nstreams1>,<device2>:<nstreams2> or just <nstreams>).

For example, use the following command-line command to run the application:
python3 classification_demo.py -m <path_to_classification_model> \
-i <path_to_folder_with_images> \
--labels <path_to_file_with_list_of_labels>
You can also run this demo with model served in OpenVINO Model Server. Refer to OVMSAdapter
to learn about running demos with OVMS.
Exemplary command:
python3 classification_demo.py -m localhost:9000/models/classification \
-i <path_to_folder_with_images> \
--labels <path_to_file_with_list_of_labels> \
--adapter ovms
The demo uses OpenCV to display images with classification results presented as a text on them. The demo reports:
- FPS: average rate of video frame processing (frames per second).
- Latency: average time required to process one frame (from reading the frame to displaying the results).
- Latency for each of the following pipeline stages:
- Decoding — capturing input data.
- Preprocessing — data preparation for inference.
- Inference — infering input data (images) and getting a result.
- Postrocessing — preparation inference result for output.
- Rendering — generating output image.
You can use these metrics to measure application-level performance.
