FFNet-40S: Optimized for Qualcomm Devices
FFNet-40S is a "fuss-free network" that segments street scene images with per-pixel classes like road, sidewalk, and pedestrian. Trained on the Cityscapes dataset.
This is based on the implementation of FFNet-40S found here. This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found here.
Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. Sign up to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.
