I wanted to know if DNN Halide implementation in OpenCV has improved since its inception

edit

Hi guys,

I am working with NVIDIA Jetson TX2 board, which has an ARM processor and Pascal GPU architecture (the cpu is not Intel btw) running on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I need to run an object detection inference from OpenCVs DNN model zoo. As OpenCV (until 3.4.2) doesn't have CUDA implementation, I am restricted to the use of only CPU for DNN inference. Currently, on the cpu, the MobileNet-SSD Caffe implementation runs at around 200 ms. I was wondering if I compile OpenCV with Halide backend, would the inference be faster. Last I checked, the DNN Halide backend implementation was work in progress, and it performed clearly worse than the CPU implementation (although the CPU used was Intel). Any suggestions would be helpful.
