model.eval()

All pre-trained models expect input images normalized in the same way, i.e. mini-batches of 3-channel RGB images of shape (3 x H x W), where H and W are expected to be at least 224. The images have to be loaded in to a range of [0, 1] and then normalized using mean = [0.485, 0.456, 0.406] and std = [0.229, 0.224, 0.225].

Here's a sample execution.

# Download an example image from the pytorch website
import urllib
url, filename = ("https://github.com/pytorch/hub/raw/master/images/dog.jpg", "dog.jpg")
try: urllib.URLopener().retrieve(url, filename)
except: urllib.request.urlretrieve(url, filename)
# sample execution (requires torchvision)
from PIL import Image
from torchvision import transforms
input_image = Image.open(filename)
preprocess = transforms.Compose([
    transforms.Resize(256),
    transforms.CenterCrop(224),
    transforms.ToTensor(),
    transforms.Normalize(mean=[0.485, 0.456, 0.406], std=[0.229, 0.224, 0.225]),
])
input_tensor = preprocess(input_image)
input_batch = input_tensor.unsqueeze(0) # create a mini-batch as expected by the model

# move the input and model to GPU for speed if available
if torch.cuda.is_available():
    input_batch = input_batch.to('cuda')
    model.to('cuda')

with torch.no_grad():
    output = model(input_batch)
# Tensor of shape 1000, with confidence scores over Imagenet's 1000 classes
print(output[0])
# The output has unnormalized scores. To get probabilities, you can run a softmax on it.
print(torch.nn.functional.softmax(output[0], dim=0))

Model Description

Harmonic DenseNet (HarDNet) is a low memory traffic CNN model, which is fast and efficient. The basic concept is to minimize both computational cost and memory access cost at the same time, such that the HarDNet models are 35% faster than ResNet running on GPU comparing to models with the same accuracy (except the two DS models that were designed for comparing with MobileNet).

Here we have the 4 versions of hardnet models, which contains 39, 68, 85 layers w/ or w/o Depthwise Separable Conv respectively. Their 1-crop error rates on imagenet dataset with pretrained models are listed below.

Model structure Top-1 error Top-5 error
hardnet39ds 27.92 9.57
hardnet68ds 25.71 8.13
hardnet68 23.52 6.99
hardnet85 21.96 6.11
