Environment Preparation

• Refer to Environment Preparation to download and install driver/firmware/CANN software packages;

• Python version requirement: python3.11. The specific version should match the python version used when compiling the dataflow wheel package. If you need to use a different python version, you can refer to Compilation to recompile the ge_compiler package and install it;

• The model generation script model_generator.py in the config directory depends on tensorflow-cpu and onnx, which need to be installed via pip3 install tensorflow-cpu and pip3 install onnx;

• sample_pytorch.py, sample_npu_model.py samples depend on torch_npu and torchvision packages. torch_npu needs to install corresponding torch and torch_npu packages according to the actual environment (it is recommended to use version 2.1.0 or above, Acquisition Method). torchvision has a matching relationship with torch, and should be installed using pip3 install torchvision after torch is installed.

Running Samples

The numa_config.json file configuration below refers to numa_config Field Description and Samples

# Execute the tensorflow raw model generation script in the config directory:
python3 config/model_generator.py
# After execution, add.pb model and simple_model.onnx model will be generated in the config directory

# Optional
export ASCEND_GLOBAL_LOG_LEVEL=3       #0 debug 1 info 2 warn 3 error. Default is error level if not set
# Required
source {HOME}/Ascend/cann/set_env.sh #{HOME} is the CANN software package installation directory, please replace according to the actual installation path
