node-red-contrib-cloud-annotations-gpu v0.0.5

node-red-contrib-cloud-annotations-gpu

A Node-RED node for making predictions with Cloud Annotations models.

Install

If you plan to use this Node-RED node on a Nvidia Jetson Nano, follow these official TensorFlow 1.x release instructions for Jetson Nano before installing this node.

Run the following command in your Node-RED user directory - typically ~/.node-red:

npm install node-red-contrib-cloud-annotations-gpu

You will notice that npm installs a @cloud-annotations/models-node-gpu dependency. That package requires a dependency on @tensorflow/tfjs-node-gpu After a lengthy build process, it will download a set of libtensorflow*.so libraries.

If you are running on a Jetson Nano, that's where the Nvidia Jetson package installed initially becomes important. You may need to copy the libtensorflow.so and libtensorflow_framework.so from the Nvidia Jetson python package to ~/.node-red/node_modules/@tensorflow/tfjs-node-gpu/deps/lib

Usage

Feed the model an image and get a list of predictions.

Configuration

• Model path: The path to the Cloud Annotations model.

Input

• msg.payload: The payload can either be a string path to an image file or a buffer object holding the image bytes.

Output

• msg.payload: A list of predictions.

The prediction array varies depending on the type of model loaded.

Object detection model example:

[{
  label: 'dog',
  bbox: [
    330.9269714355469, // x coordinate
    281.0324728488922, // y coordinate
    374.56329345703125, // width
    550.1768910884857 // height
  ],
  score: 0.92
},
{
  label: 'cat',
  bbox: [
    1168.9867401123047, // x coordinate
    431.68705701828003, // y coordinate
    412.3546600341797, // width
    522.2745037078857 // height
  ],
  score: 0.72
}]

Classification model example:

[
  { label: 'dog', score: 0.92 },
  { label: 'cat', score: 0.72 }
]
