there are three options for the place to put these .py scripts. 1) at libavfilter/dnn/python/ the point is to put all the dnn stuffs together 2) at tools/python/ the point is that there is already a .py script under tools/ 3) create a new project controlled by ffmpeg the point is that the python scripts should not be part of ffmpeg source tree. (btw, how to apply such sub project?) My idea is that the script generates dnn native model file which is loaded by ffmpeg c code, it is better to put the script within the ffmpeg source tree, and all the dnn stuffs would be better to put together, thanks. anyway, I'm open to any option, just to make the progress continue ... > > ping for review, thanks. > > Here is my rough plan after this patch. > - move dnn relative .h/.c from libavfilter to libavfilter/dnn, it is expected > there > will be more files for dnn module (code for both model loading and execution). > - add a layer for padding (tf.pad) for native mode and its fate test. > - change the script to add tf.pad support, and so the native model and the tf > model of vf_sr will be the same. > in current implementation, the two models have a little difference, it makes > the script not a general solution to convert tf model to native model. > - add layer maximum and fate test.
