Neural network model repository for highly sparse and sparse-quantized models with matching sparsification recipes
SparseZoo is a constantly-growing repository of sparsified (pruned and pruned-quantized) models with matching sparsification recipes for neural networks. It simplifies and accelerates your time-to-value in building performant deep learning models with a collection of inference-optimized models and recipes to prototype from. Read more about sparsification here.
Available via API and hosted in the cloud, the SparseZoo contains both baseline and models sparsified to different degrees of inference performance vs. baseline loss recovery. Recipe-driven approaches built around sparsification algorithms allow you to take the models as given, transfer-learn from the models onto private datasets, or transfer the recipes to your architectures.
The GitHub repository contains the Python API code to handle the connection and authentication to the cloud.
This repository is tested on Python 3.6+, and Linux/Debian systems. It is recommended to install in a virtual environment to keep your system in order.
Install with pip using:
pip install sparsezooEach model in the SparseZoo has a specific stub that identifies it. The stubs are made up of the following structure:
DOMAIN/SUB_DOMAIN/ARCHITECTURE{-SUB_ARCHITECTURE}/FRAMEWORK/REPO/DATASET{-TRAINING_SCHEME}/SPARSE_NAME-SPARSE_CATEGORY-{SPARSE_TARGET}
The properties within each model stub are defined as the following:
| Model Property | Definition | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| DOMAIN | The type of solution the model is architected and trained for | cv, nlp |
| SUB_DOMAIN | The sub type of solution the model is architected and trained for | classification, segmentation |
| ARCHITECTURE | The name of the guiding setup for the network's graph | resnet_v1, mobilenet_v1 |
| SUB_ARCHITECTURE | (optional) The scaled version of the architecture such as width or depth | 50, 101, 152 |
| FRAMEWORK | The machine learning framework the model was defined and trained in | pytorch, tensorflow_v1 |
| REPO | The model repository the model and baseline weights originated from | sparseml, torchvision |
| DATASET | The dataset the model was trained on | imagenet, cifar10 |
| TRAINING_SCHEME | (optional) A description on how the model was trained | augmented, lower_lr |
| SPARSE_NAME | An overview of what was done to sparsify the model | base, pruned, quant (quantized), pruned_quant, arch (architecture modified) |
| SPARSE_CATEGORY | Descriptor on the degree to which the model is sparsified as compared with the baseline metric | none, conservative (100% baseline), moderate (>= 99% baseline), aggressive (< 99%) |
| SPARSE_TARGET | (optional) Descriptor for the target environment the model was sparsified for | disk, edge, deepsparse, gpu |
The contents of each model are made up of the following:
- model.md: The model card containing metadata, descriptions, and information for the model.
- model.onnx: The ONNX representation of the model's graph.
- model.onnx.tar.gz: A compressed format for the ONNX file. Currently ONNX does not support sparse tensors and quantized sparse tensors well for compression.
- [FRAMEWORK]/model.[EXTENSION]: The native ML framework file(s) for the model in which it was originally trained. Such as PyTorch, Keras, TensorFlow V1
- recipes/original.[md|yaml]: The original sparsification recipe used to create the model.
- recipes/[NAME].[md|yaml]: Additional sparsification recipes that can be used with the model such as transfer learning.
- sample-originals: The original sample data without any preprocessing for use with the model.
- sample-inputs: The sample data after pre processing for use with the model.
- sample-outputs: The outputs after running the sample inputs through the model.
- sample-labels: The labels that classify the sample inputs.
The Python APIs respect this format enabling you to search and download models. Some code examples are given below.
from sparsezoo import Zoo
models = Zoo.search_models(domain="cv", sub_domain="classification")
print(models)from sparsezoo.models.classification import resnet_50
model = resnet_50()
model.download()
print(model.onnx_file.downloaded_path())from sparsezoo import Zoo
from sparsezoo.models.classification import resnet_50
search_model = resnet_50()
sparse_models = Zoo.search_sparse_models(search_model)
print(sparse_models)In addition to the Python APIs, a console script entry point is installed with the package sparsezoo.
This enables easy interaction straight from your console/terminal.
Note, for some environments the console scripts cannot install properly.
If this happens for your system and the sparsezoo command is not available,
https://github.com/neuralmagic/sparsezoo/blob/main/scripts/sparsezoo.py may be used in its place.
