注意⚠️：此问题还不算解决，只是暂时用了别人的库，以后解决了，会回来记录。因为我是做笔记，所以建议大家直接看文章最后。
Opencv3.1.0 , Ubuntu16.04 ,开发板Microzed和Zedboard都试过了，出现同样问题。

猜测一：xml本身出现了错误

Ubuntu 里面：/home/ds/桌面/EasyPR-master/resources/model/ann.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!opencv_storage>
<opencv_ml_ann_mlp>
  <format>3</format>
  <layer_sizes>120 40 65</layer_sizes>
  <activation_function>SIGMOID_SYM</activation_function>
  <f_param1>1.</f_param1>
  <f_param2>1.</f_param2>

我故意把第二行加了一个”!”,Ubuntu里运行程序：出现：

OpenCV Error: Parsing error (resources/model/ann.xml(2):
file /home/ds/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp, 
 line 2249 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cv::Exception'
  what():  /home/ds/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp:2249: 
  error: (-212) resources/model/ann.xml(2): 
  <opencv_storage> tag is missing in function icvXMLParse

在已经做好opencv移植的arm linux里面运行，出现：

OpenCV Error: Parsing error (resources/model/ann.xml(1): 
There should be space between attributes) in icvXMLParseTag, 
file /home/ds/build/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp, line 2197 what():  
  /home/ds/build/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp:2197: error: (-212) resources/model/ann.xml(1):
   There should be space between attributes in function icvXMLParseTag

然后我只把ann.xml 的第一行改为
<?xml version !="1.0"?>
在arm linux 报错和Ubuntu 上一样：

OpenCV Error: Parsing error (resources/model/ann.xml(1): Attribute name should be followed by '=') in icvXMLParseTag, 
file /home/ds/build/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp, 
line 2149 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cv::Exception' what():  
/home/ds/build/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp:2149: 
error: (-212) resources/model/ann.xml(1): Attribute name should be followed by '=' in function icvXMLParseTag

我把ann.xml 的第一行改为
<?xml version = "1.0" >
arm linux显示错误：

OpenCV Error: Parsing error (resources/model/ann.xml(1): 
There should be space between attributes) in icvXMLParseTag, 
file /home/ds/build/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp, 
line 2197 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cv::Exception' what():  /home/ds/build/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp:2197: 
error: (-212) resources/model/ann.xml(1): 
There should be space between attributes in function icvXMLParseTag

结果arm上没检测出最右边？的问题，Ubuntu检测出来了。

于是我用opencv官方的例子人脸识别的那个（FaceDetection），在Ubuntu上可以顺利跑起来，移植到arm 上之后，出现了同样的问题：

WARNING: Could not load classifier cascade for nested objects OpenCV Error: 
There should be space between attributes) in icvXMLParseTag, 
file /home/ds/build/opencv3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp, line 2197
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cv::Exception'
    what():  /home/ds/build/opencv-3.1.0/modules/core/src/persistence.cpp:2197: error: (-212) haarcascade_frontalface_alt.xml(1): 
    There should be space between attributes in function icvXMLParseTag

Aborted

说明这是通性的问题，正确的在Ubuntu上可以用的xml，移植到开发板上的arm linux里面时，就会出现
There should be space between attributes in function icvXMLParseTag 的问题。

猜测二：是arm上解析出现问题

开始时我怀疑是缺少libxml2库的问题导致了解析失败：（其实后来发现opencv是用自己的解析函数来解析xml）
于是我用ldd命令看Ubuntu程序链接了哪些库：
其中发现了xml2

 ldd demo_linux_amd64
