This tutorial demonstrates how to apply INT8 quantization to Image Classification model using NNCF. It uses the MobileNet V2 model, trained on Cifar10 dataset. The code is designed to be extendable to custom models and datasets. The tutorial uses OpenVINO backend for performing model quantization in NNCF, if you interested how to apply quantization on PyTorch model, please check this tutorial.

This tutorial consists of the following steps:

  • Prepare the model for quantization.

  • Define a data loading functionality.

  • Perform quantization.

  • Compare accuracy of the original and quantized models.

  • Compare performance of the original and quantized models.

  • Compare results on one picture.

Table of contents:

# Install openvino package
%pip install -q "openvino>=2023.1.0" "nncf>=2.6.0"
Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.
from pathlib import Path

# Set the data and model directories
DATA_DIR = Path("data")
MODEL_DIR = Path('model')
model_repo = 'pytorch-cifar-models'

DATA_DIR.mkdir(exist_ok=True)
MODEL_DIR.mkdir(exist_ok=True)

Prepare the Model

Model preparation stage has the following steps:

  • Download a PyTorch model

  • Convert model to OpenVINO Intermediate Representation format (IR) using model conversion Python API

  • Serialize converted model on disk

import sys

if not Path(model_repo).exists():
    !git clone https://github.com/chenyaofo/pytorch-cifar-models.git

sys.path.append(model_repo)

OpenVINO supports PyTorch models via conversion to OpenVINO Intermediate Representation format using model conversion Python API. ov.convert_model accept PyTorch model instance and convert it into openvino.runtime.Model representation of model in OpenVINO. Optionally, you may specify example_input which serves as a helper for model tracing and input_shape for converting the model with static shape. The converted model is ready to be loaded on a device for inference and can be saved on a disk for next usage via the save_model function. More details about model conversion Python API can be found on this page.

import openvino as ov

model.eval()

ov_model = ov.convert_model(model, input=[1,3,32,32])

Perform Quantization

NNCF provides a suite of advanced algorithms for Neural Networks inference optimization in OpenVINO with minimal accuracy drop. We will use 8-bit quantization in post-training mode (without the fine-tuning pipeline) to optimize MobileNetV2. The optimization process contains the following steps:

  1. Create a Dataset for quantization.

  2. Run nncf.quantize for getting an optimized model.

  3. Serialize an OpenVINO IR model, using the openvino.save_model function.

Create Dataset for Validation

NNCF is compatible with torch.utils.data.DataLoader interface. For performing quantization it should be passed into nncf.Dataset object with transformation function, which prepares input data to fit into model during quantization, in our case, to pick input tensor from pair (input tensor and label) and convert PyTorch tensor to numpy.

import nncf

def transform_fn(data_item):
    image_tensor = data_item[0]
    return image_tensor.numpy()

quantization_dataset = nncf.Dataset(val_loader, transform_fn)
INFO:nncf:NNCF initialized successfully. Supported frameworks detected: torch, tensorflow, onnx, openvino

Run nncf.quantize for Getting an Optimized Model

nncf.quantize function accepts model and prepared quantization dataset for performing basic quantization. Optionally, additional parameters like subset_size, preset, ignored_scope can be provided to improve quantization result if applicable. More details about supported parameters can be found on this page

quant_ov_model = nncf.quantize(ov_model, quantization_dataset)

Serialize an OpenVINO IR model

Similar to ov.convert_model, quantized model is ov.Model object which ready to be loaded into device and can be serialized on disk using ov.save_model.

ov.save_model(quant_ov_model, MODEL_DIR / "quantized_mobilenet_v2.xml")

Compare Accuracy of the Original and Quantized Models

from tqdm.notebook import tqdm
import numpy as np

def test_accuracy(ov_model, data_loader):
    correct = 0
    total = 0
    for (batch_imgs, batch_labels) in tqdm(data_loader):
        result = ov_model(batch_imgs)[0]
        top_label = np.argmax(result)
        correct += top_label == batch_labels.numpy()
        total += 1
    return correct / total

Select inference device

select device from dropdown list for running inference using OpenVINO

import ipywidgets as widgets

core = ov.Core()
device = widgets.Dropdown(
    options=core.available_devices + ["AUTO"],
    value='AUTO',
    description='Device:',
    disabled=False,
)

device
Dropdown(description='Device:', index=1, options=('CPU', 'AUTO'), value='AUTO')
core = ov.Core()
compiled_model = core.compile_model(ov_model, device.value)
optimized_compiled_model = core.compile_model(quant_ov_model, device.value)

orig_accuracy = test_accuracy(compiled_model, val_loader)
optimized_accuracy = test_accuracy(optimized_compiled_model, val_loader)
0%|          | 0/10000 [00:00<?, ?it/s]
0%|          | 0/10000 [00:00<?, ?it/s]
print(f"Accuracy of the original model: {orig_accuracy[0] * 100 :.2f}%")
print(f"Accuracy of the optimized model: {optimized_accuracy[0] * 100 :.2f}%")
Accuracy of the original model: 93.61%
Accuracy of the optimized model: 93.57%

Compare Performance of the Original and Quantized Models

Finally, measure the inference performance of the FP32 and INT8 models, using Benchmark Tool - an inference performance measurement tool in OpenVINO.

NOTE: For more accurate performance, it is recommended to run benchmark_app in a terminal/command prompt after closing other applications. Run benchmark_app -m model.xml -d CPU to benchmark async inference on CPU for one minute. Change CPU to GPU to benchmark on GPU. Run benchmark_app --help to see an overview of all command-line options.
