TAO with Synthetic Data - Fast Demo

The ana_tao_detectnet_v2 resource contains a Jupyter Notebook and supporting configuration files to quickly train the DetectNet_v2 TAO model using Rendered.ai synthetic imagery data for a live demo. A user applies transfer learning to a Resnet-18 backbone with a targeted dataset to achieve a working object detection model in under 45 minutes. The tutorial demonstrates the effectiveness of sythetic data to train CV models.

Using the ANA_TAO_DETECTNET_V2 Resource

The ana_tao_detectnet_v2 resource can be deployed to Verex AI. The managed notebook environement will contain the experiment notebook file, which, when run, will create and populate a datasets folder with a prebuilt dataset from user accounts that are set up with a given content code.

NOTE: Before running any cells, make sure to select the custom kernel from ngc.

The first few cells install the Rendered.ai SDK, 'anatools.

The notebook concludes with a visulaization of performance of the trained mode on various images including real.
