The deep-learning framework Caffe that support faster-rcnn and RFCN

This branch of Caffe extends BVLC-led Caffe by adding other functionalities such as managed-code wrapper, Faster-RCNN, R-FCN, etc. And it has been modified to be complied by c++4.4 and glibc 2.12.

Caffe is a deep learning framework made with expression, speed, and modularity in mind. It is developed by the Berkeley Vision and Learning Center (BVLC) and community contributors.

Check out the project site for all the details like

• DIY Deep Learning for Vision with Caffe
• Tutorial Documentation
• BVLC reference models and the community model zoo
• Installation instructions

and step-by-step examples.

Linux Setup

Pre-Build Steps

Copy Makefile.config.example to Makefile.config

CUDA

Download CUDA Toolkit 7.5 from nVidia website. The code doesn't support the CPU_ONLY.

cuDNN

For cuDNN acceleration using NVIDIA’s proprietary cuDNN software, uncomment the USE_CUDNN := 1 switch in Makefile.config. cuDNN is sometimes but not always faster than Caffe’s GPU acceleration.

Download cuDNN v3 or cuDNN v4 from nVidia website. And unpack downloaded zip to $CUDA_PATH (It typically would be /usr/local/cuda/include and /usr/local/cuda/lib64)

Build

Simply type

make -j8 && make pycaffe
