Hi,
I'm a newbie in OpenCV-C++. Recently, I tried multithread with OpenCV-C++ but not reach my goal. So I try to using multiprocessing with OpenCV-C++. But unfortunately, I can not find any relevant results.
Is multiprocessing feature available on OpenCV-C++ ? If It's available, How to use it ?
Thank you so much,
Toan
You need to compile OpenCV from the sources with some flags such as TBB for best multithreading performances. Moreover you can set many flags, I sugget you to use CMake GUI and check it. If the time execution matters, I suggest you to compile in RELEASE mode and not in debug mode: doing so the resulting binary will be more compact and the execution time is just impressive comparing to the DEBUG mode. Activating CUDA is also a good choice. If you don't need debug, then I suggest to you this:
cmake -D WITH_TBB=ON -D WITH_OPENMP=ON -D WITH_IPP=ON -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RELEASE -D BUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF -D WITH_NVCUVID=ON -D WITH_CUDA=ON -D BUILD_DOCS=OFF -D BUILD_PERF_TESTS=OFF -D BUILD_TESTS=OFF -D WITH_CSTRIPES=ON -D WITH_OPENCL=ON CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local/ ..
If you need debug or just want an idea, go here
P.S. = similar question that have the same link I gave here is this one
Hi @HYPEREGO, thank you for your useful answer. I found some information which concern about TBB. TBB has separately function but It's quite complex. Do you have any example about using TBB to read and write video or something else ? I used multithread to read and write video but video quality is lower than not using.
Honestly I never used it explicitly, some part of OpenCV are internally already parallelized, so compile the source activating TBB can give to you a smaller speedup in any case. I found this thread, this tutorial (switch the version of your opencv on the top), and this tutorial. Take attention to the data flow and parallelize only the part that give to you a real advantage. Unfortunately I can't give to you more information, because I've not that much experience
I also add this resource. As stated here, some part internally in OpenCV are already parallelized
A lot of things in OpenCV are parallelized by default if you use, for example, the forEach member function. Many of the function implementations are parallized as well so it'd help us to describe what exactly you're trying to do.
