Deep Learning Toolbox Converter for PyTorch Models

Import pretrained PyTorch models into MATLAB

The converter for PyTorch models enables you to import pretrained PyTorch models and weights into MATLAB.

To import a PyTorch network in MATLAB, please refer to importNetworkFromPyTorch.

Note: the model must be traced in PyTorch before importing into MATLAB. See below for an example:

# This example loads a pretrained PyTorch model from torchvision,

# traces it with example inputs, and saves the trace as a .pt file.

import torch
from torchvision import models

# Load the model with pretrained weights

model = models.mobilenet_v2(pretrained=True)

# Call "eval" to ensure that layers like batch norm and dropout are set to

# inference mode

model.eval()

# Move the model to the CPU

model.to("cpu")

# Create example inputs

X = torch.rand(1, 3, 224, 224)

# Trace model with the example input

traced_model = torch.jit.trace(model.forward, X)

# Save the traced model to a .pt file

traced_model.save('traced_mnasnet.pt')

The initial release in R2022b supports importing image classification models. Support for other model types will be added in future updates.
