TFLite-Helper v0.9.4

A Simple Library That Helps You Run TFLite Models in the Browser.

_Base code taken from https://github.com/Volcomix/virtual-background_

Installation

``
$ npm install tflite-helper
`

Preparation

To use this library you'll need to host all the files from the wasm/dist folder in the same path on your server.
ex. /tflite-helper
     \> tflite-helper.js
     \> tflite-helper.wasm
     \> tflite-helper-simd.js
     \> tflite-helper-simd.wasm
You'll also need to host your model's .tflite file.

Usage

`javascript
import createModel from 'tflite-helper';

// model_path - The URL from which to load the .tflite model file - ex. /model.tflite
// module_path - The URL from which to load the emscipten module and wasm files - ex. /tflite-helper/
const model = await createModel(model_path, module_path);

// Model Input/Ouput:
// id: number
// type: number
// offset: number
// size: number
// dimensions: number[]
// data: TypedArray - raw data of input / output (readable/writeable)
// Note: data is a getter so make sure to cache it in loops

model.inputs; // Array of model inputs
model.outputs; // Array of model outputs

const input_data = model.inputs[0].data;
// Apply changes to input data

model.invoke(); // Commonly known as predict

const output_data = model.outputs[0].data;
// Read output data

model.free(); // Free the model \w all it's memory

Adding Custom Operations

You'll need at least some very basic Bazel experience to do this.
Sometimes TFLite models use Custom Operations. You'll need to find where that Custom Operation comes from, add it to the Docker Container using the Dockerfile or the WORKSPACE file, add it as a dependency to both binaries in the BUILD file and finally import it and register it in the loadModel function in the main.cpp file. You can see how to register it from the way this library registers the Convolution2DTransposeBias from MediaPipe.
You'll will also need to build the WASM files from scratch (see below).

Building The WASM Files From Scratch

If you don't want to use the files from wasm/dist, then you'll have to build them yourself.
You'll need to install Docker if you haven't done that already.
Change the docker-username in the build\.sh or build.bat file in the wasm folder and run the script.

TODO

- Switch from ES6 to ES5 with Emscripten, and load the module files with fetch to support more browsers.
