alexnet¶
Use Case and High-Level Description¶
The alexnet model is designed to perform image classification. Just like other common classification models, the alexnet model has been pre-trained on the ImageNet image database. For details about this model, check out the paper.
The model input is a blob that consists of a single image of 1, 3, 227, 227 in BGR order. The BGR mean values need to be subtracted as follows: [104, 117, 123] before passing the image blob into the network.
The model output for alexnet is the usual object classifier output for the 1000 different classifications matching those in the ImageNet database.
