--out_nodes

Applicability

Description

Specifies output nodes (operators) of a network model or specifies the names of the outputs of a network model.

If the output nodes are not specified, the output layer of the model is used by default. If they are specified, information of the specified operators is output. To check the output of intermediate operators, use this option to specify the operators of a specific layer to be output during model conversion. After the model is converted, you can view the parameter settings of the specified operators at the end of the OM offline model file or the JSON file converted from the OM offline model file.

When --framework is set to 1, this option is invalid in the MindSpore framework, but the model will be successfully converted.

Argument

Argument:

• Node names (node_name) in the network model

  If multiple output nodes are specified, the names of the output nodes must be enclosed in double quotation marks ("") and separated by semicolons (;). node_name must be the node name in the original model. The number after the colon indicates the output index. For example, node_name1:0 indicates output 0 of the node named node_name1.

• Top names of specified output nodes (Caffe model only)

  If multiple output nodes are specified, the top names of the output nodes must be enclosed in double quotation marks ("") and separated by semicolons (;). The argument must be top names of a layer in the Caffe model before model build. If multiple layers have the same top name, the top name of the last layer is used.

• Names of specified network model outputs (ONNX network model only)

  If multiple outputs are specified, the names of the outputs must be enclosed in double quotation marks ("") and separated by semicolons (;). output must be the output of the network model.

Restrictions:

1. The passed argument is one of the preceding arguments.
2. Only Caffe networks support top names argument.
3. Only ONNX networks support output names argument.
