3.6. Adding Compiled Graphs (AOT files) to the SD Card

An AOT file contains instructions for the FPGA AI Suite IP to “execute” in order to perform inference. The M2M design variant and the S2M design variant require different AOT files. The instructions in this section create both AOT files.

To add the compiled graphs to the development kit SD card:
Tip: If you completed the FPGA AI Suite Quick Start Tutorial in the FPGA AI Suite Getting Started Guide, you can skip steps 1-3.
  1. Create the $COREDLA_WORK directory, if you have not already done so.
  2. Prepare OpenVINO™ Model Zoo and Model Optimizer.
  3. Prepare a model.
    Tip: If you completed the FPGA AI Suite Quick Start Tutorial in the FPGA AI Suite Getting Started Guide , you have already completed these first three steps.
  4. Confirm that you have the following directory:
    $COREDLA_WORK/demo/models/public/resnet-50-tf/FP32/

    If you do not have this directory, confirm that you have completed the first three steps.

  5. Compile the graphs.
  6. Copy the compiled graphs to the SD card.
