# Kneron AI Training/Deployment Platform (mmsegmentation-based)
## Introduction
[kneron-mmsegmentation](https://github.com/kneron/kneron-mmsegmentation) is a platform built upon the well-known [mmsegmentation](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmsegmentation) for mmsegmentation. If you are looking for original mmsegmentation document, please visit [mmsegmentation docs](https://mmsegmentation.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) for detailed mmsegmentation usage.
In this repository, we provide an end-to-end training/deployment flow to realize on Kneron's AI accelerators:
1. **Training/Evalulation:**
- Modified model configuration file and verified for Kneron hardware platform
- Please see [Overview of Benchmark and Model Zoo](#Overview-of-Benchmark-and-Model-Zoo) for Kneron-Verified model list
2. **Converting to ONNX:**
- tools/pytorch2onnx_kneron.py (beta)
- Export *optimized* and *Kneron-toolchain supported* onnx
- Automatically modify model for arbitrary data normalization preprocess
3. **Evaluation**
- tools/test_kneron.py (beta)
- Evaluate the model with *pytorch checkpoint, onnx, and kneron-nef*
4. **Testing**
- inference_kn (beta)
- Verify the converted [NEF](http://doc.kneron.com/docs/#toolchain/manual/#5-nef-workflow) model on Kneron USB accelerator with this API
5. **Converting Kneron-NEF:** (toolchain feature)
- Convert the trained pytorch model to [Kneron-NEF](http://doc.kneron.com/docs/#toolchain/manual/#5-nef-workflow) model, which could be used on Kneron hardware platform.

NOTE: The performance may slightly differ from the original implementation since the input size is smaller.
## Installation
- Please refer to the Step 1 of [docs_kneron/stdc_step_by_step.md#step-1-environment](docs_kneron/stdc_step_by_step.md) for installation.
