OpenVINO™
Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit is an open-source toolkit for optimizing and deploying AI inference. It can be used to develop applications and solutions based on deep learning tasks, such as: emulation of human vision, automatic speech recognition, natural language processing, recommendation systems, etc. It provides high-performance and rich deployment options, from edge to cloud.
If you have chosen a model, you can integrate it with your application through OpenVINO™ and deploy it on various devices. The OpenVINO™ Python package includes a set of libraries for easy inference integration with your products.
System Requirements
Before you start the installation, check the supported operating systems and required Python* versions. The complete list of supported hardware is available on the System Requirements page.
C++ libraries are also required for the installation on Windows*. To install that, you can download the Visual Studio Redistributable file (.exe).
NOTE: This package may work on other Linux and Windows versions but only the versions specified in system requirements are fully validated.
Install OpenVINO™
Step 1. Set Up Python Virtual Environment
Use a virtual environment to avoid dependency conflicts. To create a virtual environment, use the following commands:
On Windows:
python -m venv openvino_env
On Linux and macOS:
python3 -m venv openvino_env
NOTE: On Linux and macOS, you may need to install pip.
Step 2. Activate the Virtual Environment
On Windows:
openvino_env\Scripts\activate
On Linux and macOS:
source openvino_env/bin/activate
Step 3. Set Up and Update PIP to the Highest Version
Run the command below:
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
Step 4. Install the Package
Run the command below:
pip install openvino
Step 5. Verify that the Package Is Installed
Run the command below:
python -c "from openvino import Core; print(Core().available_devices)"
If installation was successful, you will see the list of available devices.
What's in the Package
Component | Content | Description |
---|---|---|
OpenVINO Runtime | `openvino package` | OpenVINO Runtime is a set of C++ libraries with C and Python bindings providing a common API to deliver inference solutions on the platform of your choice. Use the OpenVINO Runtime API to read PyTorch, TensorFlow, TensorFlow Lite, ONNX, and PaddlePaddle models and execute them on preferred devices. OpenVINO Runtime uses a plugin architecture and includes the following plugins: CPU, GPU, Auto Batch, Auto, Hetero, |
OpenVINO Model Converter (OVC) | `ovc` | OpenVINO Model Converter converts models that were trained in popular frameworks to a
format usable by OpenVINO components. Supported frameworks include ONNX, TensorFlow, TensorFlow Lite, and PaddlePaddle. |
Benchmark Tool | `benchmark_app` | Benchmark Application** allows you to estimate deep learning inference performance on supported devices for synchronous and asynchronous modes. |
Troubleshooting
For general troubleshooting steps and issues, see Troubleshooting Guide for OpenVINO Installation. The following sections also provide explanations to several error messages.
Errors with Installing via PIP for Users in China
Users in China may encounter errors while downloading sources via PIP during OpenVINO™ installation. To resolve the issues, try the following solution:
-
Add the download source using the
-i
parameter with the Pythonpip
command. For example:pip install openvino -i https://mirrors.aliyun.com/pypi/simple/
Use the
--trusted-host
parameter if the URL above ishttp
instead ofhttps
.
ERROR:root:Could not find OpenVINO Python API.
On Windows, additional libraries may be necessary to run OpenVINO. To resolve this issue, install the C++ redistributable (.exe). You can also view a full download list on the official support page.
ImportError: libpython3.8.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
To resolve missing external dependency on Ubuntu*, execute the following command:
sudo apt-get install libpython3.8
