Resize and layout conversions will be performed automatically by the corresponding plugin just before inference |
At startup, the sample application reads command-line parameters, prepares input data, loads a specified model and image to the OpenVINO™ Runtime plugin, performs synchronous inference, and processes output data, logging each step in a standard output stream.
each sample step at [Integration Steps](../../../docs/OV_Runtime_UG/integrate_with_your_application.md) section of "Integrate OpenVINO™ Runtime with Your Application" guide.
- you can use [public](@ref omz_models_group_public) or [Intel's](@ref omz_models_group_intel) pre-trained models from the Open Model Zoo. The models can be downloaded using the [Model Downloader](@ref omz_tools_downloader).
> - By default, OpenVINO™ Toolkit Samples and demos expect input with BGR channels order. If you trained your model to work with RGB order, you need to manually rearrange the default channels order in the sample or demo application or reconvert your model using the Model Optimizer tool with `--reverse_input_channels` argument specified. For more information about the argument, refer to **When to Reverse Input Channels** section of [Embedding Preprocessing Computation](@ref openvino_docs_MO_DG_Additional_Optimization_Use_Cases).
> - Before running the sample with a trained model, make sure the model is converted to the intermediate representation (IR) format (\*.xml + \*.bin) using the [Model Optimizer tool](../../../docs/MO_DG/Deep_Learning_Model_Optimizer_DevGuide.md).
