by Akshay Bhat

Deep Video Analytics is a platform for indexing and extracting information from videos and images. With latest version of docker installed correctly, you can run Deep Video Analytics in minutes locally (even without a GPU) using a single command.

For installation instructions & demo please visit https://www.deepvideoanalytics.com

Documentation

• For a quick overview we strongly recommend going through the presentation in readme.pdf

Experiments

• OCR example has been moved to /docs/experiments/ocr directory.
• More experiments coming soon!

Deployment

We provide instructions for developing, testing and deploying DVA.

0. deploy/compose/dev contains docker-compose files for interactively developing DVA by using host server directory mapped as a volume.

1. deploy/compose/test contains docker-compose files for testing cloud filesystem (s3, gcs) support.

2. deploy/compose/cpu contains docker-compose files for non-GPU single machine deployments on Linode, AWS, GCP etc.

3. deploy/compose/gpu contains docker-compose files for GPU single machine deployments on GCP, AWS etc.

4. deploy/kube contains files used for launching DVA in a scalable GKE + GCS setup, with and without GPUs.

Code organization

• /client : Python client using DVA REST API
• /configs : ngnix config + defaults.py defining models + processing pipelines (can be replaced by mounting a volume)
• /deploy : Dockerfiles + Instructions for development, single machine deployment and scalable deployment with Kubernetes
• /docs : Documentation, tutorial and experiments
• /tests : Files required for testing
• /repos : Code copied from third party repos, e.g. Yahoo LOPQ, TF-CTPN etc.
• /server : dvalib + django server contains contains bulk of the code for UI, App and models.
• /logs : Empty dir for storing logs
