In preparation for my talk at the Philadelphia Open Source Conference(https://phillyopensource.splashthat.com/), Apache Deep Learning 201, I wanted to have some good images for running various Apache MXNet GluonCV Deep Learning Algorithms for Computer Vision. See: https://gluon-cv.mxnet.io/

Using Apache open source tools - Apache NiFi 1.8 and Apache MXNet 1.3 with GluonCV I can easily ingest live traffic camera images and run Object Detection, Semantic Segmentation and Instance Segmentation.

Code: https://github.com/tspannhw/ApacheDeepLearning201

It's so easy, I am running multiple on the data to see which gives me the results I like. I am like YOLO which is a one of my old favorites.

  • yolonifitraffic.py
  • demo_mask_rcnn_nyc.py
  • demo_deeplab_nyc.py

So we can find the cars and people in these webcams. Use cases can be around traffic optimization, public safety and advertisement optimization. Due to licensing, I thought it better not to show Traffic Camera data here.

To industrialize and scale out this process from a single Data Scientist to a national ingestion system, we use the power of Apache NiFi to ingest, process and control flows. I am using the latest Apache NiFi 1.8.

Apache NiFi Flow to Ingest and Process Traffic Camera Data

First we have a list of URLs that I want to process, this can be sourced and stored anywhere. For ease of use with a static set I am using GenerateFlowFile. I have a JSON file of URLs that I split and parse to call various Computer Vision Python scripts (DeepLab3, MaskRCNN, YOLO and others). YOLO seems to be the most useful so far. I am grabbing the results, some system metrics, metadata and the deep learning analytics generated by Apache MXNet.

I split the flow into two portions. One builds GluonCV result data from YOLO and the other creates a file from TensorFlow results done on the fly.

Here is a list of my webcam URLs. There's millions of them out there.

If your data is tabular, then you need a schema for fast record processing.

This can be OpenCV, a static photo or from a URL.

There's a lot of people crossing the street!

Semantic Segmentation: DeepLabV3 with GluonCV

GluonCV DeepLabV3 model on ADE20K dataset

model = gluoncv.model_zoo.get_model('deeplab_resnet101_ade', pretrained=True)

run1.sh demo_deeplab_webcam.py

This runs pretty slow on a machine with no GPU.
