Mac下安装caffe并运行MNIST

1,首先安装homebrew包管理工具

$ ruby -e "$(curl-fsSL\http://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

2,安装成功后，利用brew安装依赖包

$ brew install -vd snappy leveldb gflags blogs zip lmdv
$ brew tap homebrew/science
$ brew install protobuf boost wget

此过程中可能有些依赖包会装不上，部分可参考下面的解决办法：

glog安装
$ wget https://google-glog.googlecode.com/files/glog-0.3.3.tar.gz
$ tar zxvf glog-0.3.3.tar.gz
$ cd glog-0.3.3
$ ./configure
$ make -stdlib = libstdc++
$ make install

flags安装 
$ wget  http://github.com/schuhschuh/gflags/archive/master.zip
$ unzip master.zip
$ cd gulags-master
$ mkdir build && cd build
$ export CXXFLAGS="-fPIC" &&cmake ..&& make VERBOSE=1
$ make && make install

lmdb安装
$ git clone https://github.com/LMDB/lmdb
$ cd lmdb/libraries/liblmdb
$ make && make install

3,下载caffe源码

$ git clone https://github.com/bvlc/caffe.git
$ cd caffe/
$ mv Makefile.config.example Makefile.config
$ vi Makefile.config
//修改 CPU_ONLY:=1

4,编译

$ make all 
$ make test
$ make runtest

编译过程中，可能会出现很多warning，不过不用担心，没报错就行。

5, 运行MNIST

获取并生成训练集和数据集

$ cd caffe
$ ./data/mnist/get_mnist.sh
$ ./examples/mnist/create_mnist.sh

执行完后在mnist文件夹下会多出两个文件夹：mnist_train_lmdb，mnist_test_lmdb，分别是训练集和测试集。
因为Mac上面没有GPU，所以将./examples/mnist/lenet_solver.prototxt文件中最后一行改为：
solver_mode: CPU
运行minst：

$ cd caffe
$ ./examples/mnist/train_lenet.sh

成功后，会出现如下信息：

生成训练集和测试集的时候出现了如下错误：

Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/protobuf/lib/libprotobuf.9.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/figo/caffe/build/examples/mnist/convert_mnist_data.bin
  Reason: image not found

出现此错误主要是因为之前安装了caffe，后来安装tensorflow的时候将protobuf更新到了最新的版本，要解决此问题，只需要将caffe重新编译下就可以了。
重新编译的过程中，又出现了如下错误：

.build_release/src/caffe/proto/caffe.pb.h:17:2: error: This file was generated by an older version of protoc

需要clean一下，再编译就行了

$ make clean
$ make all 
$ make test
$ make runtest
