关于Windows下编译Caffe的Matlab接口

本文对本人前述博文中关于在Windows下编译Caffe的Matlab接口问题，作一些总结，首先看一下本文编译成功的CommonSettings.props文件范例，如下所示：

其中重点在如下截图部分：

本人在首次编译时，将<UseCuDNN>true</UseCuDNN>时，并下载了相应的cudnn，可是在编译时总是出一些莫名奇妙的错误，具体解决方案在前述博文中有涉及。在这里，本人将其改为<UseCuDNN>false</UseCuDNN>时，编译不再出现关于cudnn的错误，但是出现了找不到Python2.7 Lib有关的问题，可是想用Python3.5编译（前述博文试过，出错，但是Python2.7就不出错），设置的路径也是Python3的，可是总是出错。于是，如此设置<PythonSupport>false</PythonSupport>（本人只想编译matcaffe接口），于是一路编译下去再没出现任何编译错误。当你不需要pycaffe接口和cudnn支持的时候，仅仅需要在matlab下玩转Caffe，这种编译方法最简单，也不容易出错。在Build\x64\Release\matcaffe\+caffe\private路径下出现caffe_.mexw64文件才算编译成功。

编译后的接口在路径Build\x64\Release下，需要把它加入环境变量的系统路径下，或者直接把该路径下和caffe_.mexw64等文件拷贝到Matlab的classification_demo的当前路径下，一般就可以运行该程序了，运行结果如下：

    %参考http://www.aichengxu.com/view/2422137  
    clear  
    clc  
      
    im = imread('../../examples/images/cat.jpg');%读取图片  
    figure;imshow(im);%显示图片  
    [scores, maxlabel] = classification_demo(im, 0);%获取得分第二个参数0为CPU，1为GPU  
    maxlabel %查看最大标签是谁  
    figure;plot(scores);%画出得分情况  
    axis([0, 999, -0.1, 0.5]);%坐标轴范围  
    grid on %有网格  
      
    fid = fopen('synset_words.txt', 'r');  
    i=0;  
    while ~feof(fid)  
        i=i+1;  
        lin = fgetl(fid);  
        lin = strtrim(lin);  
        if(i==maxlabel)  
            fprintf('the label of %d is %s\n',i,lin)  
            break  
        end  
    end  

synset_words.txt是ImageNet数据集的分类标签，需要另外下载，网上可下。还需要下载bvlc_reference_caffenet.caffemodel，方可运行成功，Caffe model zoo可下。
