Here is a practical guide for converting pytorch model to ncnn
resnet18 is used as the example
## pytorch to onnx
The official pytorch tutorial for exporting onnx model
https://pytorch.org/tutorials/advanced/super_resolution_with_caffe2.html
```python
import torch
import torchvision
import torch.onnx
# An instance of your model
model = torchvision.models.resnet18()
# An example input you would normally provide to your model's forward() method
x = torch.rand(1, 3, 224, 224)
# Export the model
torch_out = torch.onnx._export(model, x, "resnet18.onnx", export_params=True)
```
## simplify onnx model
The exported resnet18.onnx model may contains many redundant operators such as Shape, Gather and Unsqueeze that is not supported in ncnn
```
Shape not supported yet!
Gather not supported yet!
# axis=0
Unsqueeze not supported yet!
# axes 7
Unsqueeze not supported yet!
# axes 7
```
Fortunately, daquexian developed a handy tool to eliminate them. cheers!
https://github.com/daquexian/onnx-simplifier
```
python3 -m onnxsim resnet18.onnx resnet18-sim.onnx
```
## onnx to ncnn
Finally, you can convert the model to ncnn using tools/onnx2ncnn
```
onnx2ncnn resnet18-sim.onnx resnet18.param resnet18.bin
```
