Disclaimer, I posted the same question here and on Stackoverflow.
I'm trying to do deployment from Keras to opencv c++.
I trained a simple CNN with the mnist dataset (my example is a modified Keras example). After training I exposed tensorflow graph from Keras backend and saved the model and the graph.
tensorFlowSession = K.get_session()
tf.saved_model.simple_save(tensorFlowSession, newpath + "/TensorFlow", inputs={"x": x}, outputs={"y": y})
tf.train.write_graph(tensorFlowSession.graph_def,newpath + "/TensorFlow", "trainGraph_def.pbtxt")
Then I tried to load the saved model using opencv in python, I started with opencv in python, however I experience a similar error using opencv in c++.
net = cv.dnn.readNet(newpath + '/TensorFlow/' + 'saved_model.pb', newpath + '/TensorFlow/' + 'trainGraph.pbtxt')
The problem is the opencv failed to load tensorflow graph, I get an error-
[libprotobuf ERROR /io/opencv/3rdparty/protobuf/src/google/protobuf/wire_format_lite.cc:629] String field 'tensorflow.FunctionDef.Node.ret' contains invalid UTF-8 data when parsing a protocol buffer. Use the 'bytes' type if you intend to send raw bytes.
Saving and loading a tensorflow graph using opencv should be rather straightforward, what am I missing here? See attached my code. Any help would be appreciated
