[FIXED] Process output data from YOLOv5 TFlite

Issue

❔Question

Hi, I have successfully trained a custom model based on YOLOv5s and converted the model to TFlite. I feel silly asking, but how do you use the output data?

I get as output:

• StatefulPartitionedCall: 0 = [1,25200,7] from the converted YOLOv5 model Netron YOLOv5s.tflite model

But I expect an output like:

• StatefulPartitionedCall:3 = [1, 10, 4] # boxes
• StatefulPartitionedCall:2 = [1, 10] # classes
• StatefulPartitionedCall:1 = [1, 10] #scores
• StatefulPartitionedCall:0 = [1] #count (this one is from a tensorflow lite mobilenet model (trained to give 10 output data, default for tflite)) Netron mobilenet.tflite model

It may also be some other form of output, but I honestly have no idea how to get the boxes, classes, scores from a [1,25200,7] array. (on 15-January-2021 I updated pytorch, tensorflow and yolov5 to the latest version)

The data contained in the [1, 25200, 7] array can be found in this file: outputdata.txt

Should I add a Non Max Suppression or something else, can someone help me please? (github YOLOv5 #1981)

Solution

Thanks to @Glenn Jocher I found the solution. The output is [xywh, conf, class0, class1, ...]

My current code is now:

def classFilter(classdata):
    classes = []  # create a list
    for i in range(classdata.shape[0]):         # loop through all predictions
        classes.append(classdata[i].argmax())   # get the best classification location
    return classes  # return classes (int)

def YOLOdetect(output_data):  # input = interpreter, output is boxes(xyxy), classes, scores
    output_data = output_data[0]                # x(1, 25200, 7) to x(25200, 7)
    boxes = np.squeeze(output_data[..., :4])    # boxes  [25200, 4]
    scores = np.squeeze( output_data[..., 4:5]) # confidences  [25200, 1]
    classes = classFilter(output_data[..., 5:]) # get classes
    # Convert nx4 boxes from [x, y, w, h] to [x1, y1, x2, y2] where xy1=top-left, xy2=bottom-right
    x, y, w, h = boxes[..., 0], boxes[..., 1], boxes[..., 2], boxes[..., 3] #xywh
    xyxy = [x - w / 2, y - h / 2, x + w / 2, y + h / 2]  # xywh to xyxy   [4, 25200]

    return xyxy, classes, scores  # output is boxes(x,y,x,y), classes(int), scores(float) [predictions length]

To get the output data:

"""Output data"""
output_data = interpreter.get_tensor(output_details[0]['index'])  # get tensor  x(1, 25200, 7)
xyxy, classes, scores = YOLOdetect(output_data) #boxes(x,y,x,y), classes(int), scores(float) [25200]

And for the boxes:

for i in range(len(scores)):
    if ((scores[i] > 0.1) and (scores[i] <= 1.0)):
        H = frame.shape[0]
        W = frame.shape[1]
        xmin = int(max(1,(xyxy[0][i] * W)))
        ymin = int(max(1,(xyxy[1][i] * H)))
        xmax = int(min(H,(xyxy[2][i] * W)))
        ymax = int(min(W,(xyxy[3][i] * H)))

        cv2.rectangle(frame, (xmin,ymin), (xmax,ymax), (10, 255, 0), 2)
        ...
