一、Data_layers.hpp文件的作用简介


Data_layers.hpp在目前caffe的master分支中已经不能存在了,分散到各个文件中去了。
而之前是存在于cafferoot\include\caffe中。现在已经变成了各个类的名称的头文件了。这里做个提醒

首先给出这个文件中所包含的几个与数据读取有关的类。
分别为:
BaseDataLayer
数据层的基类,继承自通用的类Layer

Batch
Batch实际上就是一个data_和label_类标

BasePrefetchingDataLayer
是预取层的基类,继承自BaseDataLayer和InternalThread,包含能够读取一批数据的能力

DataLayer
DataLayer才是主角,继承自BasePrefetchingDataLayer
使用DataReader来进行数据共享,从而实现并行化

DummyDataLayer
该类是继承自Layer,通过Filler产生数据

HDF5DataLayer
从HDF5中读取,继承自Layer

HDF5OutputLayer
将数据写入到HDF5文件,继承自Layer

ImageDataLayer
从图像文件中读取数据,这个应该比较常用,继承自BasePrefetchingDataLayer

MemoryDataLayer
从内存中读取数据,这里指已经从数据文件或者图像文件中读取到了数据,然后输入到该层,继承自BaseDataLayer


WindowDataLayer
从图像文件的窗口获取数据,需要指定窗口数据文件,继承自BasePrefetchingDataLayer

二、Data_layers文件的的详细介绍

上述类虽然在同一个头文件中进行的定义,但是却都是在不同的cpp文件进行的实现。

HDF5OutputLayer
对应于:

以及
hdf5_output_layer.cpp
hdf5_output_layer.cu

ImageDataLayer
对应于:

MemoryDataLayer
对应于:

WindowDataLayer
对应于
window_data_layer.cpp

接下来对这些类进行详细阐述:


(1)BaseDataLayer的类定义以及实现如下:


/**
 * @brief Provides base for data layers that feed blobs to the Net.
 *
 * TODO(dox): thorough documentation for Forward and proto params.
 * 数据层的基类
 */
template <typename Dtype>
class BaseDataLayer : public Layer<Dtype> {
 public:
  // 显式构造函数
  explicit BaseDataLayer(const LayerParameter& param);
  // LayerSetUp: implements common data layer setup functionality, and calls
  // DataLayerSetUp to do special data layer setup for individual layer types.
  // This method may not be overridden except by the BasePrefetchingDataLayer.
  // 该函数只能被BasePrefetchingDataLayer层进行重载
  virtual void LayerSetUp(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);
  // Data layers should be shared by multiple solvers in parallel
  // 数据是否需要给多个并行solver进行共享
  virtual inline bool ShareInParallel() const { return true; }

  // 数据层的初始化
  virtual void DataLayerSetUp(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top) {}

  // 数据层是没有输入的(即bottoms),所以reshape只是形式
  // Data layers have no bottoms, so reshaping is trivial.
  virtual void Reshape(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top) {}

  virtual void Backward_cpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top,
      const vector<bool>& propagate_down, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom) {}
  virtual void Backward_gpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top,
      const vector<bool>& propagate_down, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom) {}

 protected:
  // 对输入的数据进行变换的参数,这其中包括是否需要mirror,是否需要crop
  // 是否需要减去meanfile,是否需要scale
  TransformationParameter transform_param_;
  // 实际执行数据变换类的指针(一个Transform函数加上参数即可完成对数据的变换,参数是数据哈)
  shared_ptr<DataTransformer<Dtype> > data_transformer_;
  bool output_labels_;
};



具体的实现:

// 构造函数就是初始化数据变换参数
template <typename Dtype>
BaseDataLayer<Dtype>::BaseDataLayer(const LayerParameter& param)
    : Layer<Dtype>(param),
      transform_param_(param.transform_param()) {
}

// 初始化的时候根据top的大小来确定,如果是1表明只输出数据,而不输出类标
template <typename Dtype>
void BaseDataLayer<Dtype>::LayerSetUp(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top) {
  if (top.size() == 1) {
    output_labels_ = false;
  } else {
    output_labels_ = true;
  }
  // 初始化一个DataTransformer实例,便于对数据进行预处理
  data_transformer_.reset(
      new DataTransformer<Dtype>(transform_param_, this->phase_));
  // 初始化种子
  data_transformer_->InitRand();
  // The subclasses should setup the size of bottom and top
  // 执行数据层的初始化
  DataLayerSetUp(bottom, top);
}




(2)BasePrefetchingDataLayer类的定义以及实现如下:


BasePrefetchingDataLayer类的定义如下:

// BasePrefetchingDataLayer层是继承于BaseDataLayer的
// 是预取层的基类
template <typename Dtype>
class BasePrefetchingDataLayer :
    public BaseDataLayer<Dtype>, public InternalThread {
 public:
  explicit BasePrefetchingDataLayer(const LayerParameter& param);
  // LayerSetUp: implements common data layer setup functionality, and calls
  // DataLayerSetUp to do special data layer setup for individual layer types.
  // This method may not be overridden.
  void LayerSetUp(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);

  virtual void Forward_cpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);
  virtual void Forward_gpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);

  // Prefetches batches (asynchronously if to GPU memory)
  static const int PREFETCH_COUNT = 3;

 protected:
  virtual void InternalThreadEntry();
  // 多了load_batch函数,该函数是纯虚函数,继承该函数的类都需要实现的
  virtual void load_batch(Batch<Dtype>* batch) = 0;
  // 还有prefetch数组,prefetch_free_,prefetch_full_
  Batch<Dtype> prefetch_[PREFETCH_COUNT];
  BlockingQueue<Batch<Dtype>*> prefetch_free_;
  BlockingQueue<Batch<Dtype>*> prefetch_full_;

  Blob<Dtype> transformed_data_;
};


BasePrefetchingDataLayer类的具体实现如下:
// 构造函数,初始化预取的队列,free和full
template <typename Dtype>
BasePrefetchingDataLayer<Dtype>::BasePrefetchingDataLayer(
    const LayerParameter& param)
    : BaseDataLayer<Dtype>(param),
      prefetch_free_(), prefetch_full_() {
  for (int i = 0; i < PREFETCH_COUNT; ++i) {
    prefetch_free_.push(&prefetch_[i]);
  }
}

// 进行层的初始化
template <typename Dtype>
void BasePrefetchingDataLayer<Dtype>::LayerSetUp(
    const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top) {
    // 首先执行基类BaseDataLayer的层初始化
  BaseDataLayer<Dtype>::LayerSetUp(bottom, top);
  // Before starting the prefetch thread, we make cpu_data and gpu_data
  // calls so that the prefetch thread does not accidentally make simultaneous
  // cudaMalloc calls when the main thread is running. In some GPUs this
  // seems to cause failures if we do not so.
  // 在开启预取线程的时候,需要让cpu数据和gpu数据分配空间
  // 这样才能够避免在某些GPU上出现问题

  // 首先是CPU
  for (int i = 0; i < PREFETCH_COUNT; ++i) {
    prefetch_[i].data_.mutable_cpu_data();
    if (this->output_labels_) {
      prefetch_[i].label_.mutable_cpu_data();
    }
  }
#ifndef CPU_ONLY
  // 然后是GPU
  if (Caffe::mode() == Caffe::GPU) {
    for (int i = 0; i < PREFETCH_COUNT; ++i) {
      prefetch_[i].data_.mutable_gpu_data();
      if (this->output_labels_) {
        prefetch_[i].label_.mutable_gpu_data();
      }
    }
  }
#endif
  DLOG(INFO) << "Initializing prefetch";
  // 初始化随机数种子
  this->data_transformer_->InitRand();
  // 开启线程
  StartInternalThread();
  DLOG(INFO) << "Prefetch initialized.";
}

// 在StartInternalThread开启线程后就会执行下面自己定义的函数
// 这个就是自己定义的函数,让线程去执行的
template <typename Dtype>
void BasePrefetchingDataLayer<Dtype>::InternalThreadEntry() {
#ifndef CPU_ONLY
  cudaStream_t stream;
  if (Caffe::mode() == Caffe::GPU) {
      // 创建非阻塞流
    CUDA_CHECK(cudaStreamCreateWithFlags(&stream, cudaStreamNonBlocking));
  }
#endif

  try {
    while (!must_stop()) {
        // 弹出一个batch
      Batch<Dtype>* batch = prefetch_free_.pop();
        // 装载batch
      load_batch(batch);
#ifndef CPU_ONLY
      if (Caffe::mode() == Caffe::GPU) {
          // 如果GPU模式开始,则推送到GPU
        batch->data_.data().get()->async_gpu_push(stream);
        // 检查是否成功
        CUDA_CHECK(cudaStreamSynchronize(stream));
      }
#endif
      // 将装好的batch压入full队列
      prefetch_full_.push(batch);
    }
  } catch (boost::thread_interrupted&) {
    // Interrupted exception is expected on shutdown
  }
#ifndef CPU_ONLY
  if (Caffe::mode() == Caffe::GPU) {
      // 销毁流
    CUDA_CHECK(cudaStreamDestroy(stream));
  }
#endif
}

template <typename Dtype>
void BasePrefetchingDataLayer<Dtype>::Forward_cpu(
    const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top) {
    // 传递的时候是从full队列中弹出一个数据
  Batch<Dtype>* batch = prefetch_full_.pop("Data layer prefetch queue empty");
  // Reshape to loaded data.
  // 根据batch的形状改变数据形状
  top[0]->ReshapeLike(batch->data_);
  // Copy the data
  // 将batch数据复制到top[0]
  caffe_copy(batch->data_.count(), batch->data_.cpu_data(),
             top[0]->mutable_cpu_data());
  DLOG(INFO) << "Prefetch copied";
  if (this->output_labels_) {
      // 输出类标的话

    caffe_copy(batch->label_.count(), batch->label_.cpu_data(),
        top[1]->mutable_cpu_data());
  }
  // 将该batch压入free队列
  prefetch_free_.push(batch);
}


// 如果没有GPU的话则在BasePrefetchingDataLayer类中生成一个Forward函数
// 该函数并不前传,而是直接报错
#ifdef CPU_ONLY

#endif
// 初始化层
INSTANTIATE_CLASS(BaseDataLayer);
INSTANTIATE_CLASS(BasePrefetchingDataLayer);





(3)DataLayer类的定义以及实现如下:


数据层的主要功能是:
首先给出类的定义

// DataLayer才是主角,继承自BasePrefetchingDataLayer
template <typename Dtype>
class DataLayer : public BasePrefetchingDataLayer<Dtype> {
 public:

}

INSTANTIATE_CLASS(DataLayer);
REGISTER_LAYER_CLASS(Data);

}  // namespace caffe



(4)DummyDataLayer类的定义与实现介绍:


Dummy数据层的主要功能就是根据所给定的Filler产生数据,然后前向传

首先给出定义

/**
 * @brief Provides data to the Net generated by a Filler.
 *
 * TODO(dox): thorough documentation for Forward and proto params.
 * 该类是继承自Layer,通过Filler产生数据
 */
template <typename Dtype>
class DummyDataLayer : public Layer<Dtype> {
 public:
  explicit DummyDataLayer(const LayerParameter& param)
      : Layer<Dtype>(param) {}
  virtual void LayerSetUp(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);
  // Data layers should be shared by multiple solvers in parallel
  virtual inline bool ShareInParallel() const { return true; }
  // Data layers have no bottoms, so reshaping is trivial.
  virtual void Reshape(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top) {}

  virtual inline const char* type() const { return "DummyData"; }
  virtual inline int ExactNumBottomBlobs() const { return 0; }
  virtual inline int MinTopBlobs() const { return 1; }

 protected:
  virtual void Forward_cpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);
  virtual void Backward_cpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top,
      const vector<bool>& propagate_down, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom) {}
  virtual void Backward_gpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top,
      const vector<bool>& propagate_down, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom) {}

  vector<shared_ptr<Filler<Dtype> > > fillers_;
  vector<bool> refill_;
};



接下来给出详细的定义:

首先给出FillerParameter的定义,里面指定了值的类型,值是啥,最小是啥,最大是啥,平均值、方差是啥、是否稀疏、以及将扇入个数还是扇出个数还是所有的加起来求均值作为分母

message FillerParameter {
  // The filler type.
  optional string type = 1 [default = 'constant'];
  optional float value = 2 [default = 0]; // the value in constant filler
  optional float min = 3 [default = 0]; // the min value in uniform filler
  optional float max = 4 [default = 1]; // the max value in uniform filler
  optional float mean = 5 [default = 0]; // the mean value in Gaussian filler
  optional float std = 6 [default = 1]; // the std value in Gaussian filler
  // The expected number of non-zero output weights for a given input in
  // Gaussian filler -- the default -1 means don't perform sparsification.
  optional int32 sparse = 7 [default = -1];
  // Normalize the filler variance by fan_in, fan_out, or their average.
  // Applies to 'xavier' and 'msra' fillers.
  enum VarianceNorm {
    FAN_IN = 0;
    FAN_OUT = 1;
    AVERAGE = 2;
  }
  optional VarianceNorm variance_norm = 8 [default = FAN_IN];
}

再看看该类的参数
</pre><pre name="code" class="plain">// DummyDataLayer fills any number of arbitrarily shaped blobs with random
// (or constant) data generated by "Fillers" (see "message FillerParameter").
message DummyDataParameter {
  // This layer produces N >= 1 top blobs.  DummyDataParameter must specify 1 or N
  // shape fields, and 0, 1 or N data_fillers.
  //
  // If 0 data_fillers are specified, ConstantFiller with a value of 0 is used.
  // If 1 data_filler is specified, it is applied to all top blobs.  If N are
  // specified, the ith is applied to the ith top blob.
  repeated FillerParameter data_filler = 1;
  repeated BlobShape shape = 6;

  // 4D dimensions -- deprecated.  Use "shape" instead.
  repeated uint32 num = 2;
  repeated uint32 channels = 3;
  repeated uint32 height = 4;
  repeated uint32 width = 5;
}



接下来给出具体的实现
#include <vector>

#include "caffe/filler.hpp"
#include "caffe/layer.hpp"
#include "caffe/vision_layers.hpp"

namespace caffe {

  }
  // refill_[i] tells Forward i whether or not to actually refill top Blob i.
  // If refill_[i] is false, Forward does nothing for Blob i. We use this to
  // avoid wastefully refilling "constant" Blobs in every forward pass.
  // We first fill refill_ in with the INVERSE of its final values.

  //
  refill_.clear();
  fillers_.clear();
  // 要么是0,要么是1

(5)HDF5DataLayer类的定义以及实现如下:

HDF5数据层的主要功能是从给定的HDF5文件列表读取数据,然后设置top,即向前传播的数据。


首先给出类的定义:
template <typename Dtype>
class HDF5DataLayer : public Layer<Dtype> {
 public:
  explicit HDF5DataLayer(const LayerParameter& param)
      : Layer<Dtype>(param) {}
  virtual ~HDF5DataLayer();
  virtual void LayerSetUp(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);
  // Data layers should be shared by multiple solvers in parallel
  virtual inline bool ShareInParallel() const { return true; }
  // Data layers have no bottoms, so reshaping is trivial.
  virtual void Reshape(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top) {}

  virtual inline const char* type() const { return "HDF5Data"; }
  virtual inline int ExactNumBottomBlobs() const { return 0; }
  virtual inline int MinTopBlobs() const { return 1; }

 protected:
  virtual void Forward_cpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);
  virtual void Forward_gpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom,
      const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top);
  virtual void Backward_cpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top,
      const vector<bool>& propagate_down, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom) {}
  virtual void Backward_gpu(const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top,
      const vector<bool>& propagate_down, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom) {}
  // 从HDF5文件读取数据
  virtual void LoadHDF5FileData(const char* filename);

  std::vector<std::string> hdf_filenames_;
  unsigned int num_files_;
  unsigned int current_file_;
  hsize_t current_row_;
  std::vector<shared_ptr<Blob<Dtype> > > hdf_blobs_;
  // 存放的是数据的索引,可以对索引进行shuffle
  std::vector<unsigned int> data_permutation_;
  // 存放的是文件名字的索引,可以对索引进行shuffle
  std::vector<unsigned int> file_permutation_;
};



接下来给出类的具体实现:

(7)ImageDataLayer类的定义以及实现如下:

该层主要的功能是,从参数中给定的列表文件读取图像列表以及类标,读取图像的时候会进行预处理,然后前向传。
首先给出该层的参数的定义:
message ImageDataParameter {
  // Specify the data source.
  // 列表文件包含图像的路径和对应的类标,以空格隔开
  optional string source = 1;
  // Specify the batch size.
  // 批大小
  optional uint32 batch_size = 4 [default = 1];
  // The rand_skip variable is for the data layer to skip a few data points
  // to avoid all asynchronous sgd clients to start at the same point. The skip
  // point would be set as rand_skip * rand(0,1). Note that rand_skip should not
  // be larger than the number of keys in the database.
  // 随机调过一些数据
  optional uint32 rand_skip = 7 [default = 0];
  // 是否需要打乱数据顺序
  // Whether or not ImageLayer should shuffle the list of files at every epoch.
  optional bool shuffle = 8 [default = false];
  // It will also resize images if new_height or new_width are not zero.
  // 将图像resize到新的高度的宽度
  optional uint32 new_height = 9 [default = 0];
  optional uint32 new_width = 10 [default = 0];
  // Specify if the images are color or gray
  // 图像是否是彩色的
  optional bool is_color = 11 [default = true];
  // DEPRECATED. See TransformationParameter. For data pre-processing, we can do
  // simple scaling and subtracting the data mean, if provided. Note that the
  // mean subtraction is always carried out before scaling.
  // 是否需要对图像进行缩放
  optional float scale = 2 [default = 1];
  // 均值文件
  optional string mean_file = 3;
  // DEPRECATED. See TransformationParameter. Specify if we would like to randomly
  // crop an image.
  // crop的大小
  optional uint32 crop_size = 5 [default = 0];
  // DEPRECATED. See TransformationParameter. Specify if we want to randomly mirror
  // data.
  // 是否需要对图像进行镜像,所谓镜像就是左边复制到右边
  optional bool mirror = 6 [default = false];
  // 图像的根目录
  optional string root_folder = 12 [default = ""];
}



首先给出类的定义:
/**
 * @brief Provides data to the Net from image files.
 *
 * TODO(dox): thorough documentation for Forward and proto params.
 * 从图像文件中读取数据,这个应该比较常用
 * 从一个列表文件读取图像的路径和类标,列表文件的路径在层参数的配置文件中指定

(9)WindowDataLayer类的定义以及实现如下:

该类主要就是对于读取好的Datum或者OpenCV读取的Mat的Vector进行预处理(图像的crop、scale等),然后前传。


首先给出窗口数据文件的格式,便于自己训练


窗口文件的格式如下:
# 图像索引(举例:# 1就表示第一个图像,注意#号与数字之间有空格)
图像的路径
图像通道数
图像高度
图像宽度
窗口数目
类标,与前景目标的重叠率,x1,y1,x2,y2
注:x1,y1,x2,y2是窗口的左上和右下的坐标


为了理解的更清楚我这里举个例子:
# 1 /1.jpg 3 720 480 100 1 1 0 0 100 100 2 30 100 1500 1500
上述的例子表示一个编号为1的图像相对路径为/1.jpg,通道为3,高度为720
宽度为480,窗口数目为100,类标为1,与前景目标的重叠率为0.8,类标为1窗口的左上坐标为(0,0),右下坐标为(100,100)
类标为2的窗口的左上角坐标为(30,100),右下角的坐标为(1500,1500)。有多少窗口后面就这么继续写下去


接下来给出该层的参数:
message WindowDataParameter {
  // Specify the data source.
  // 装有窗口数据的列表文件
  optional string source = 1;
  // For data pre-processing, we can do simple scaling and subtracting the
  // data mean, if provided. Note that the mean subtraction is always carried
  // out before scaling.
  // 是否需要缩放图像中的像素值,注意哈这不是缩放图像的大小,是拿图像的像素值乘以这个
  optional float scale = 2 [default = 1];
  // 平均值文件路径
  optional string mean_file = 3;
  // Specify the batch size.
  // 批大小
  optional uint32 batch_size = 4;
  // Specify if we would like to randomly crop an image.
  // 随机crop的图像块的大小
  optional uint32 crop_size = 5 [default = 0];
  // Specify if we want to randomly mirror data.

最后提醒一下该类并没有重载前传函数,而是调用了基类的前传,我把对应的代码贴出来便于你整体进行理解
template <typename Dtype>
void BasePrefetchingDataLayer<Dtype>::Forward_cpu(
    const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& bottom, const vector<Blob<Dtype>*>& top) {
    // 传递的时候是从full队列中弹出一个数据
  Batch<Dtype>* batch = prefetch_full_.pop("Data layer prefetch queue empty");
  // Reshape to loaded data.
  // 根据batch的形状改变数据形状
  top[0]->ReshapeLike(batch->data_);
  // Copy the data
  // 将batch数据复制到top[0]
  caffe_copy(batch->data_.count(), batch->data_.cpu_data(),
             top[0]->mutable_cpu_data());
  DLOG(INFO) << "Prefetch copied";
  if (this->output_labels_) {
      // 输出类标的话
    // Reshape to loaded labels.
    // 根据batch中类标的形状改变top[1]的形状
    top[1]->ReshapeLike(batch->label_);
    // Copy the labels.
    // 复制类标到top[1]
    caffe_copy(batch->label_.count(), batch->label_.cpu_data(),
        top[1]->mutable_cpu_data());
  }
  // 将该batch压入free队列
  prefetch_free_.push(batch);
}








三、总结

首先理顺类与类之间的关系:
Layer类是所有神经网络层的基类,BaseDataLayer继承自该类,BasePrefetchingDataLayer继承自BaseDataLayer,DataLayer继承自BasePrefetchingDataLayer。
有了上述几个基础的类之后,其他的类都是从这几个类进行派生。

比如DummyDataLayer,HDF5Layer和HDF5OutputLayer都是直接继承自Layer。
MemoryDataLayer则是继承自BaseDataLayer

凡是涉及到直接读取数据文件的一般都是继承自BasePrefetchingDataLayer,这样可以有效地读数据进行预取。
比如:ImageDataLayer、WindowDataLayer
继承自BasePrefetchingDataLayer需要实现load_batch函数以供内部的线程进行调用,实现数据预取。
此外每一个网络层的类(因为所有的网络层都继承自Layer类嘛)都需要实现SetUp,这个是必须的。

这一次的量还真有点大。。。
