View in Edge Impulse docs View on GitHub Download notebook Amazon SageMaker Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) that provides a single web-based visual interface where you can access purpose-built tools to perform all machine learning (ML) development steps, from preparing data to building, training, and deploying your ML models, improving data science team productivity by up to 10x. You can quickly upload data, create new notebooks, train and tune models, move back and forth between steps to adjust experiments, collaborate seamlessly within your organization, and deploy models to production without leaving SageMaker Studio.

SageMaker Studio

To learn more about using the Python SDK, please see: Edge Impulse Python SDK Overview. This guide has been built from AWS reference project Introduction to SageMaker TensorFlow - Image Classification, please have a look at this AWS documentation page. Below are the changes made to the original training script and configuration:
  • The Python 3 (Data Science 3.0) kernel was used.
  • We used a dataset to classify images as car vs unknown.
  • The dataset has been imported in the Edge Impulse S3 bucket configured when creating the SageMaker Studio domain. Make sure to adapt to your path or use the AWS reference project.
  • The training instance used is ml.m5.large.

We have used the default bucket created when configuring SageMaker Studio domain:

S3 Bucket overview

import sagemaker, boto3, json
from sagemaker.session import Session

sagemaker_session = Session()
aws_role = sagemaker_session.get_caller_identity_arn()
aws_region = boto3.Session().region_name
print(aws_region)
sess = sagemaker.Session()

bucket = sess.default_bucket()
subfolder = 'car-vs-unknown/training/'

s3 = boto3.client('s3')
files = s3.list_objects(Bucket=bucket, Prefix=subfolder)['Contents']
print(f"Number of images: {len(files)}")
# or print the files
# for f in files:
#     print(f['Key'])

Train

You can continue with the default model, or can choose a different model from the list. Note that this tutorial has been tested with MobileNetv2 based models. A complete list of SageMaker pre-trained models can also be accessed at Sagemaker pre-trained Models.

# Retrieves all image classification models available by SageMaker Built-In Algorithms.
filter_value = "task in ['ic']"
ic_models = list_jumpstart_models(filter=filter_value)
# od_models = list_jumpstart_models()

print(f"Number of models available for inference: {len(ic_models)}")

# display the model-ids.
for model in ic_models:
    print(model)

from sagemaker import image_uris, model_uris

model_id, model_version = "tensorflow-ic-imagenet-mobilenet-v3-small-075-224", "*" # You can change the based model with one from the list generated above

Edge Impulse

You will need to obtain an API key from an Edge Impulse project. Log into edgeimpulse.com and create a new project. Open the project, navigate to Dashboard and click on the Keys tab to view your API keys. Double-click on the API key to highlight it, right-click, and select Copy.

Copy API key from Edge Impulse project

Note that you do not actually need to use the project in the Edge Impulse Studio. We just need the API Key. Paste that API key string in the ei.API_KEY value in the following cell: 
import edgeimpulse as ei
ei.API_KEY = "ei_0a85c3a5ca92a35ee6f61aab18aadb9d9e167bd152f947f2056a4fb6a60977d8" # Change to your key

ei.model.list_profile_devices()

# Estimate the RAM, ROM, and inference time for our model on the target hardware family
try:
    profile = ei.model.profile(model='model.tflite',
                               device='raspberry-pi-4')
    print(profile.summary())
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Could not profile: {e}")

# List the available profile target devices
ei.model.list_deployment_targets()

# Get the labels from the label_info.json
import json

labels_info = open('tmp/labels_info.json')
labels_obj = json.load(labels_info)
labels = labels_obj['labels']
print(labels)

# Set model information, such as your list of labels
model_output_type = ei.model.output_type.Classification(labels=labels)
deploy_filename = "my_model_cpp.zip"

# Create C++ library with trained model
deploy_bytes = None
try:

    deploy_bytes = ei.model.deploy(model=model,
                                   model_output_type=model_output_type,
                                   engine='tflite',
                                   deploy_target='zip"')
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Could not deploy: {e}")

# Write the downloaded raw bytes to a file
if deploy_bytes:
    with open(deploy_filename, 'wb') as f:
        f.write(deploy_bytes.getvalue())
Voila! You now have a C++ library ready to be compiled and integrated in your embedded targets. Feel free to have a look at Edge Impulse deployment options on the documentation to understand how you can integrate that to your embedded systems. You can also have a look at the deployment page of your project to test your model on a web browser or test
