Introduction to Practical Ultra Light-weight image Classification solutions

PULC solutions consists of PP-LCNet light-weight backbone, SSLD pretrained models, Ensemble of Data Augmentation strategy and SKL-UGI knowledge distillation. PULC models inference within 3ms on CPU devices, with accuracy comparable with SwinTransformer. We also release 9 practical models covering pedestrian, vehicle and OCR.

Introduction to Image Recognition Systems

PP-ShiTuV2 is a practical lightweight general image recognition system, which is mainly composed of three modules: mainbody detection model, feature extraction model and vector search tool. The system adopts a variety of strategies including backbone network, loss function, data augmentations, optimal hyperparameters, pre-training model, model pruning and quantization. Compared to V1, PP-ShiTuV2, Recall1 is improved by nearly 8 points. For more details, please refer to PP-ShiTuV2 introduction. For a new unknown category, there is no need to retrain the model, just prepare images of new category, extract features and update retrieval database and the category can be recognised.
