Deploying the YOLOPv2 model on to Metis M2 for lane detection

Metis M.2 Accelerator Can't Recognized by Jetson AGX Orin

Hello.I recently received the m.2 metis accelerators and did a test on the boards provided by Axelera and got results close to the published benchmarks. It was succesful.I then connected these accelerators to the Orin (via the m.2 slot) in order to use them also for the my Jetson AGX Orin environment. But in the voyager-sdk installation i got “WARNING: Failed to refresh pcie and firmware” error. The installation completes but the accelerator device does not show up on my system. In lspci -tv command I get the output attached to this post. Can’t see metis there.I didn't see any information about the compatibility of these accelerators with Jetson systems (my m2 slot is M-key). If they are compatible, can you help me to fix the installation?Thanks :)

Transforming the Attention mechanism into Convolutional

Hello,I know that axelera does not work in the attention mechanism. For example, can we convert the attention mechanism in the yolov11 architecture to convolution? Have you done any research or read on this subject? Does Softmax structure work in Axelera? (as far as I know, no) Is there a way to turn Softmax into a working structure?

Guidance on Running Lane Detection Model (culane_res18.onnx) on Metis M2

Hello,I am currently working with a lane detection model named culane_res18.onnx, and I would like to know how I can run this model on the Metis M2 device.Here are some details about the setup:The model is culane_res18.onnx, which is a lane detection model. The training dataset is from the CULane dataset, and I have the link to the dataset here. The model file can be found here.Could you kindly guide me on how to run this lane detection model on Metis M2? I would appreciate any step-by-step instructions or basic guidance on how to deploy this model, considering that I have both the ONNX model and the dataset.Looking forward to your response!Best regards,Chinmay Mulgund

Tested at Yolov8x and Yolo11

Hello,I wanted to test the Yolo11n model. But I couldn't do this because I got an error in the calibrating part. Is this because of the use of attention mechanism in Yolo11 and Yolo12?Error: ValueError: Some modules couldn’t be simplified: <… activation.Softmax> <…. matmul.MatMul>In addition, when I looked at the ready yaml files on voyager sdk github, I saw that the yolov8x model was not available. Is there a special reason for this? Because when I prepared and tried a new yolov8x yaml file, I got the similar error again. But as far as I know, the attention mechanism is not used in Yolov8x.Thanks

Considering the M.2 module – what can it realistically handle?

I’m scoping out the Metis M.2 module for a compact edge AI project and wondering how capable it really is. I’m mainly interested in real-time object detection on 1080p video streams, maybe 2–4 cameras max.Can it handle multi-stream inputs in real-time, or is that better suited to the PCIe version?

First tasks when getting started with a Metis M.2

It’s actually not that complicated getting started with an M.2 module, and there’s a good chance that the Metis isn’t the first M.2 you’ve ever had in your hands.But it’s still good policy to familiarise yourself with both the hardware and the software when you’re ready to unbox that little AI beauty.To help with that, we’ve got a series of articles to walk you through…Installation: Handling and installing the M.2 in your host system, and a great tip on how to confirm there’s suitable power getting to it once it’s in place Integration: Top tips on figuring out whether the host PC (or system or platform) is nicely compatible with the needs of the Metis accelerator. Voyager SDK: Once it’s installed and ready, all you need is the Voyager SDK.This is all just to get you started, and then the real work begins! Make sure you share what you’re building right here on the Axelera community 👍
