Tensorflow
Tensorflow Filter allows running Machine Learning inference tasks on the records of data coming from input plugins or stream processor. This filter uses Tensorflow Lite as the inference engine, and requires Tensorflow Lite shared library to be present during build and at runtime.
Tensorflow Lite is a lightweight open-source deep learning framework that is used for mobile and IoT applications. Tensorflow Lite only handles inference (not training), therefore, it loads pre-trained models (.tflite
files) that are converted into Tensorflow Lite format (FlatBuffer
). You can read more on converting Tensorflow models here
Configuration Parameters
The plugin supports the following configuration parameters:
Key | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
input_field | Specify the name of the field in the record to apply inference on. | |
model_file | Path to the model file ( | |
include_input_fields | Include all input filed in filter's output | True |
normalization_value | Divide input values to normalization_value |
Creating Tensorflow Lite shared library
Clone Tensorflow repository, install bazel package manager, and run the following command in order to create the shared library:
The script creates the shared library bazel-bin/tensorflow/lite/c/libtensorflowlite_c.so
. You need to copy the library to a location (such as /usr/lib
) that can be used by Fluent Bit.
Building Fluent Bit with Tensorflow filter plugin
Tensorflow filter plugin is disabled by default. You need to build Fluent Bit with Tensorflow plugin enabled. In addition, it requires access to Tensorflow Lite header files to compile. Therefore, you also need to pass the address of the Tensorflow source code on your machine to the build script:
Command line
If Tensorflow plugin initializes correctly, it reports successful creation of the interpreter, and prints a summary of model's input/output types and dimensions.
Configuration File
Limitations
Currently supports single-input models
Uses Tensorflow 2.3 header files
