+name: DenseNet models on ImageNet
+SINGA version: 1.1.1
+SINGA commit:
+license: https://github.com/pytorch/vision/blob/master/torchvision/models/densenet.py
+---
+
+# Image Classification using DenseNet
+
+
+In this example, we convert DenseNet on [PyTorch](https://github.com/pytorch/vision/blob/master/torchvision/models/densenet.py)
+to SINGA for image classification.
+
+## Instructions
+
+* Download one parameter checkpoint file (see below) and the synset word file of ImageNet into this folder, e.g.,
+
+ $ wget https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/dlfile/densenet/densenet-121.tar.gz
+ $ wget https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/dlfile/resnet/synset_words.txt
+ $ tar xvf densenet-121.tar.gz
+
+* Usage
+
+ $ python serve.py -h
+
+* Example
+
+ # use cpu
+ $ python serve.py --use_cpu --parameter_file densenet-121.pickle --depth 121 &
+ # use gpu
+ $ python serve.py --parameter_file densenet-121.pickle --depth 121 &
+
+ The parameter files for the following model and depth configuration pairs are provided:
+ [121](https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/dlfile/densenet/densenet-121.tar.gz), [169](https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/dlfile/densenet/densenet-169.tar.gz), [201](https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/dlfile/densenet/densenet-201.tar.gz), [161](https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/dlfile/densenet/densenet-161.tar.gz)
+
+* Submit images for classification
+
+ $ curl -i -F image=@image1.jpg http://localhost:9999/api
+ $ curl -i -F image=@image2.jpg http://localhost:9999/api
+ $ curl -i -F image=@image3.jpg http://localhost:9999/api
+
+image1.jpg, image2.jpg and image3.jpg should be downloaded before executing the above commands.
+
+## Details
+
+The parameter files were converted from the pytorch via the convert.py program.
+
+Usage:

+SINGA commit: 8c990f7da2de220e8a012c6a8ecc897dc7532744
+parameter_url: https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/dlfile/bvlc_googlenet.tar.gz

+---
+
+# Image Classification using GoogleNet
+
+
+In this example, we convert GoogleNet trained on Caffe to SINGA for image classification.
+
+## Instructions
+
+* Download the parameter checkpoint file into this folder
+
+ $ wget https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/dlfile/bvlc_googlenet.tar.gz
+ $ tar xvf bvlc_googlenet.tar.gz
+
+* Run the program
+
+ # use cpu
+ $ python serve.py -C &
+ # use gpu
+ $ python serve.py &
+
+* Submit images for classification
+
+ $ curl -i -F image=@image1.jpg http://localhost:9999/api
+ $ curl -i -F image=@image2.jpg http://localhost:9999/api
+ $ curl -i -F image=@image3.jpg http://localhost:9999/api
+
+image1.jpg, image2.jpg and image3.jpg should be downloaded before executing the above commands.
+
+## Details
+
+We first extract the parameter values from [Caffe's checkpoint file](http://dl.caffe.berkeleyvision.org/bvlc_googlenet.caffemodel) into a pickle version
+After downloading the checkpoint file into `caffe_root/python` folder, run the following script
+
+ # to be executed within caffe_root/python folder
+ import caffe
+ import numpy as np
+ import cPickle as pickle
+
+ model_def = '../models/bvlc_googlenet/deploy.prototxt'
+ weight = 'bvlc_googlenet.caffemodel' # must be downloaded at first
+ net = caffe.Net(model_def, weight, caffe.TEST)
+
+ params = {}
+ for layer_name in net.params.keys():
+ weights=np.copy(net.params[layer_name][0].data)
+ bias=np.copy(net.params[layer_name][1].data)
+ params[layer_name+'_weight']=weights
+ params[layer_name+'_bias']=bias
+ print layer_name, weights.shape, bias.shape
+
+ with open('bvlc_googlenet.pickle', 'wb') as fd:
+ pickle.dump(params, fd)
+
+Then we construct the GoogleNet using SINGA's FeedForwardNet structure.
+Note that we added a EndPadding layer to resolve the issue from discrepancy
+of the rounding strategy of the pooling layer between Caffe (ceil) and cuDNN (floor).
+Only the MaxPooling layers outside inception blocks have this problem.
+Refer to [this](http://joelouismarino.github.io/blog_posts/blog_googlenet_keras.html) for more detials.

+# Neural Net
+
+
+`NeuralNet` in SINGA represents an instance of user's neural net model. As the
+neural net typically consists of a set of layers, `NeuralNet` comprises
+a set of unidirectionally connected [Layer](layer.html)s.
+This page describes how to convert an user's neural net into
+the configuration of `NeuralNet`.
+
+<img src="../_static/images/model-category.png" align="center" width="200px"/>
+<span><strong>Figure 1 - Categorization of popular deep learning models.</strong></span>
+
+## Net structure configuration
+
+Users configure the `NeuralNet` by listing all layers of the neural net and
+specifying each layer's source layer names. Popular deep learning models can be
+categorized as Figure 1. The subsequent sections give details for each
+category.

+
+Feed-forward models, e.g., CNN and MLP, can easily get configured as their layer
+connections are undirected without circles. The
+configuration for the MLP model shown in Figure 1 is as follows,
+
+ net {
+ layer {
+ name : 'data"
+ type : kData
+ }
+ layer {
+ name : 'image"
+ type : kImage
+ srclayer: 'data'
+ }
+ layer {
+ name : 'label"
+ type : kLabel
+ srclayer: 'data'
+ }
+ layer {
+ name : 'hidden"
+ type : kHidden
+ srclayer: 'image'
+ }
+ layer {
+ name : 'softmax"
+ type : kSoftmaxLoss
+ srclayer: 'hidden'
+ srclayer: 'label'
+ }
+ }
+
+### Energy models
+
+<img src="../_static/images/rbm-rnn.png" align="center" width="500px"/>
+<span><strong>Figure 3 - Convert connections in RBM and RNN.</strong></span>
+
+
+For energy models including RBM, DBM,
+etc., their connections are undirected (i.e., Category B). To represent these models using
+`NeuralNet`, users can simply replace each connection with two directed
+connections, as shown in Figure 3a. In other words, for each pair of connected layers, their source
+layer field should include each other's name.
+The full [RBM example](rbm.html) has
+detailed neural net configuration for a RBM model, which looks like
+
+ net {
+ layer {
+ name : "vis"
+ type : kVisLayer
+ param {
+ name : "w1"
+ }
+ srclayer: "hid"
+ }
+ layer {
+ name : "hid"
+ type : kHidLayer
+ param {
+ name : "w2"
+ share_from: "w1"
+ }
+ srclayer: "vis"
+ }
+ }
+
+### RNN models
+
+For recurrent neural networks (RNN), users can remove the recurrent connections
+by unrolling the recurrent layer. For example, in Figure 3b, the original
+layer is unrolled into a new layer with 4 internal layers. In this way, the
+model is like a normal feed-forward model, thus can be configured similarly.
+The [RNN example](rnn.html) has a full neural net
+configuration for a RNN model.
+
+
+## Configuration for multiple nets
+
+Typically, a training job includes three neural nets for
+training, validation and test phase respectively. The three neural nets share most
+layers except the data layer, loss layer or output layer, etc.. To avoid
+redundant configurations for the shared layers, users can uses the `exclude`
+filed to filter a layer in the neural net, e.g., the following layer will be
+filtered when creating the testing `NeuralNet`.
+
+
+ layer {
+ ...
+ exclude : kTest # filter this layer for creating test net
+ }
+
+
+
+## Neural net partitioning
+
+A neural net can be partitioned in different ways to distribute the training
+over multiple workers.
+
+### Batch and feature dimension
+
+<img src="../_static/images/partition_fc.png" align="center" width="400px"/>
+<span><strong>Figure 4 - Partitioning of a fully connected layer.</strong></span>
+
+
+Every layer's feature blob is considered a matrix whose rows are feature
+vectors. Thus, one layer can be split on two dimensions. Partitioning on
+dimension 0 (also called batch dimension) slices the feature matrix by rows.
+For instance, if the mini-batch size is 256 and the layer is partitioned into 2
+sub-layers, each sub-layer would have 128 feature vectors in its feature blob.
+Partitioning on this dimension has no effect on the parameters, as every
+[Param](param.html) object is replicated in the sub-layers. Partitioning on dimension
+1 (also called feature dimension) slices the feature matrix by columns. For
+example, suppose the original feature vector has 50 units, after partitioning
+into 2 sub-layers, each sub-layer would have 25 units. This partitioning may
+result in [Param](param.html) object being split, as shown in
+Figure 4. Both the bias vector and weight matrix are
+partitioned into two sub-layers.
+
+
+### Partitioning configuration
+
+There are 4 partitioning schemes, whose configurations are give below,
+
+ 1. Partitioning each singe layer into sub-layers on batch dimension (see
+ below). It is enabled by configuring the partition dimension of the layer to
+ 0, e.g.,
+
+ # with other fields omitted
+ layer {
+ partition_dim: 0
+ }
+
+ 2. Partitioning each singe layer into sub-layers on feature dimension (see
+ below). It is enabled by configuring the partition dimension of the layer to
+ 1, e.g.,
+
+ # with other fields omitted
+ layer {
+ partition_dim: 1
+ }
+
+ 3. Partitioning all layers into different subsets. It is enabled by
+ configuring the location ID of a layer, e.g.,
+
+ # with other fields omitted
+ layer {
+ location: 1
+ }
+ layer {
+ location: 0
+ }
+
+
+ 4. Hybrid partitioning of strategy 1, 2 and 3. The hybrid partitioning is
+ useful for large models. An example application is to implement the
+ [idea proposed by Alex](http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.5997).
+ Hybrid partitioning is configured like,
+
+ # with other fields omitted
+ layer {
+ location: 1
+ }
+ layer {
+ location: 0
+ }
+ layer {
+ partition_dim: 0
+ location: 0
+ }
+ layer {
+ partition_dim: 1
+ location: 0
+ }
+
+Currently SINGA supports strategy-2 well. Other partitioning strategies are
+are under test and will be released in later version.
+
+## Parameter sharing
+
+Parameters can be shared in two cases,
+
+ * sharing parameters among layers via user configuration. For example, the
+ visible layer and hidden layer of a RBM shares the weight matrix, which is configured through
+ the `share_from` field as shown in the above RBM configuration. The
+ configurations must be the same (except name) for shared parameters.
+
+ * due to neural net partitioning, some `Param` objects are replicated into
+ different workers, e.g., partitioning one layer on batch dimension. These
+ workers share parameter values. SINGA controls this kind of parameter
+ sharing automatically, users do not need to do any configuration.
+
+ * the `NeuralNet` for training and testing (and validation) share most layers
+ , thus share `Param` values.
+
+If the shared `Param` instances resident in the same process (may in different
+threads), they use the same chunk of memory space for their values. But they
+would have different memory spaces for their gradients. In fact, their
+gradients will be averaged by the stub or server.
+
+## Advanced user guide
+
+### Creation
+
+ static NeuralNet* NeuralNet::Create(const NetProto& np, Phase phase, int num);
+
+The above function creates a `NeuralNet` for a given phase, and returns a
+pointer to the `NeuralNet` instance. The phase is in {kTrain,
+kValidation, kTest}. `num` is used for net partitioning which indicates the
+number of partitions. Typically, a training job includes three neural nets for
+training, validation and test phase respectively. The three neural nets share most
+layers except the data layer, loss layer or output layer, etc.. The `Create`
+function takes in the full net configuration including layers for training,
+validation and test. It removes layers for phases other than the specified
+phase based on the `exclude` field in
+[layer configuration](layer.html):
+
+ layer {
+ ...
+ exclude : kTest # filter this layer for creating test net
+ }
+
+The filtered net configuration is passed to the constructor of `NeuralNet`:
+
+ NeuralNet::NeuralNet(NetProto netproto, int npartitions);
+
+The constructor creates a graph representing the net structure firstly in
+
+ Graph* NeuralNet::CreateGraph(const NetProto& netproto, int npartitions);
+
+Next, it creates a layer for each node and connects layers if their nodes are
+connected.
+
+ void NeuralNet::CreateNetFromGraph(Graph* graph, int npartitions);
+
+Since the `NeuralNet` instance may be shared among multiple workers, the
+`Create` function returns a pointer to the `NeuralNet` instance .
+
+### Parameter sharing
+
+ `Param` sharing
+is enabled by first sharing the Param configuration (in `NeuralNet::Create`)
+to create two similar (e.g., the same shape) Param objects, and then calling
+(in `NeuralNet::CreateNetFromGraph`),
+
+ void Param::ShareFrom(const Param& from);
+
+It is also possible to share `Param`s of two nets, e.g., sharing parameters of
+the training net and the test net,
+
+ void NeuralNet:ShareParamsFrom(NeuralNet* other);
+
+It will call `Param::ShareFrom` for each Param object.
+
+### Access functions
+`NeuralNet` provides a couple of access function to get the layers and params
+of the net:
+
+ const std::vector<Layer*>& layers() const;
+ const std::vector<Param*>& params() const ;
+ Layer* name2layer(string name) const;
+ Param* paramid2param(int id) const;
+
+
+### Partitioning
+
+
+#### Implementation
+
+SINGA partitions the neural net in `CreateGraph` function, which creates one
+node for each (partitioned) layer. For example, if one layer's partition
+dimension is 0 or 1, then it creates `npartition` nodes for it; if the
+partition dimension is -1, a single node is created, i.e., no partitioning.
+Each node is assigned a partition (or location) ID. If the original layer is
+configured with a location ID, then the ID is assigned to each newly created node.
+These nodes are connected according to the connections of the original layers.
+Some connection layers will be added automatically.
+For instance, if two connected sub-layers are located at two
+different workers, then a pair of bridge layers is inserted to transfer the
+feature (and gradient) blob between them. When two layers are partitioned on
+different dimensions, a concatenation layer which concatenates feature rows (or
+columns) and a slice layer which slices feature rows (or columns) would be
+inserted. These connection layers help making the network communication and
+synchronization transparent to the users.
+
+#### Dispatching partitions to workers
+
+Each (partitioned) layer is assigned a location ID, based on which it is dispatched to one
+worker. Particularly, the pointer to the `NeuralNet` instance is passed
+to every worker within the same group, but each worker only computes over the
+layers that have the same partition (or location) ID as the worker's ID. When
+every worker computes the gradients of the entire model parameters
+(strategy-2), we refer to this process as data parallelism. When different
+workers compute the gradients of different parameters (strategy-3 or
+strategy-1), we call this process model parallelism. The hybrid partitioning
+leads to hybrid parallelism where some workers compute the gradients of the
+same subset of model parameters while other workers compute on different model
+parameters. For example, to implement the hybrid parallelism in for the
+[DCNN model](http://arxiv.org/abs/1404.5997), we set `partition_dim = 0` for
+lower layers and `partition_dim = 1` for higher layers.

+# Software Stack
+
+SINGA's software stack includes three major components, namely, core, IO and
+model. Figure 1 illustrates these components together with the hardware.
+The core component provides memory management and tensor operations;
+IO has classes for reading (and writing) data from (to) disk and network; The
+model component provides data structures and algorithms for machine learning models,
+e.g., layers for neural network models, optimizers/initializer/metric/loss for
+general machine learning models.
+
+
+<img src="../_static/images/singav1-sw.png" align="center" width="500px"/>
+<br/>
+<span><strong>Figure 1 - SINGA V1 software stack.</strong></span>
+
+## Core
+
+[Tensor](tensor.html) and [Device](device.html) are two core abstractions in SINGA. Tensor class represents a
+multi-dimensional array, which stores model variables and provides linear algebra
+operations for machine learning
+algorithms, including matrix multiplication and random functions. Each tensor
+instance (i.e. a tensor) is allocated on a Device instance.
+Each Device instance (i.e. a device) is created against one hardware device,
+e.g. a GPU card or a CPU core. Devices manage the memory of tensors and execute
+tensor operations on its execution units, e.g. CPU threads or CUDA streams.
+
+Depending on the hardware and the programming language, SINGA have implemented
+the following specific device classes:
+
+* **CudaGPU** represents an Nvidia GPU card. The execution units are the CUDA streams.
+* **CppCPU** represents a normal CPU. The execution units are the CPU threads.
+* **OpenclGPU** represents normal GPU card from both Nvidia and AMD.
+ The execution units are the CommandQueues. Given that OpenCL is compatible with
+ many hardware devices, e.g. FPGA and ARM, the OpenclGPU has the potential to be
+ extended for other devices.
+
+Different types of devices use different programming languages to write the kernel
+functions for tensor operations,
+
+* CppMath (tensor_math_cpp.h) implements the tensor operations using Cpp for CppCPU
+* CudaMath (tensor_math_cuda.h) implements the tensor operations using CUDA for CudaGPU
+* OpenclMath (tensor_math_opencl.h) implements the tensor operations using OpenCL for OpenclGPU
+
+In addition, different types of data, such as float32 and float16, could be supported by adding
+the corresponding tensor functions.
+
+Typically, users would create a device instance and pass it to create multiple
+tensor instances. When users call the Tensor functions, these function would invoke
+the corresponding implementation (CppMath/CudaMath/OpenclMath) automatically. In
+other words, the implementation of Tensor operations is transparent to users.
+
+Most machine learning algorithms could be expressed using (dense or sparse) tensors.
+Therefore, with the Tensor abstraction, SINGA would be able to run a wide range of models,
+including deep learning models and other traditional machine learning models.
+
+The Tensor and Device abstractions are extensible to support a wide range of hardware device
+using different programming languages. A new hardware device would be supported by
+adding a new Device subclass and the corresponding implementation of the Tensor
+operations (xxxMath).
+
+Optimizations in terms of speed and memory could be implemented by Device, which
+manages both operation execution and memory malloc/free. More optimization details
+would be described in the [Device page](device.html).
+
+
+## Model
+
+On top of the Tensor and Device abstractions, SINGA provides some higher level
+classes for machine learning modules.
+
+* [Layer](layer.html) and its subclasses are specific for neural networks. Every layer provides
+ functions for forward propagating features and backward propagating gradients w.r.t the training loss functions.
+ They wraps the complex layer operations so that users can easily create neural nets
+ by connecting a set of layers.
+
+* [Initializer](initializer.html) and its subclasses provide variant methods of initializing
+ model parameters (stored in Tensor instances), following Uniform, Gaussian, etc.
+
+* [Loss](loss.html) and its subclasses defines the training objective loss functions.
+ Both functions of computing the loss values and computing the gradient of the prediction w.r.t the
+ objective loss are implemented. Example loss functions include squared error and cross entropy.
+
+* [Metric](metric.html) and its subclasses provide the function to measure the
+ performance of the model, e.g., the accuracy.
+
+* [Optimizer](optimizer.html) and its subclasses implement the methods for updating
+ model parameter values using parameter gradients, including SGD, AdaGrad, RMSProp etc.
+
+
+## IO
+
+The IO module consists of classes for data loading, data preprocessing and message passing.
+
+* Reader and its subclasses load string records from disk files
+* Writer and its subclasses write string records to disk files
+* Encoder and its subclasses encode Tensor instances into string records
+* Decoder and its subclasses decodes string records into Tensor instances
+* Endpoint represents a communication endpoint which provides functions for passing messages to each other.
+* Message represents communication messages between Endpoint instances. It carries both meta data and payload.

+Tensor
+========
+
+Each Tensor instance is a multi-dimensional array allocated on a specific
+Device instance. Tensor instances store variables and provide
+linear algebra operations over different types of hardware devices without user
+awareness. Note that users need to make sure the tensor operands are
+allocated on the same device except copy functions.
+
+
+Tensor implementation
+---------------------
+
+SINGA has three different sets of implmentations of Tensor functions, one for each
+type of Device.
+
+* 'tensor_math_cpp.h' implements operations using Cpp (with CBLAS) for CppGPU devices.
+* 'tensor_math_cuda.h' implements operations using Cuda (with cuBLAS) for CudaGPU devices.
+* 'tensor_math_opencl.h' implements operations using OpenCL for OpenclGPU devices.

+**Disclaimer**
+
+Apache SINGA is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software
+Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the name of Apache Incubator PMC. Incubation is
+required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that
+the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized
+in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation
+status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the
+code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the
+ASF.
