DescriptionπŸ”—

query_available_dl_devicesQueryAvailableDlDevices returns a list of handles. Each handle refers to a deep-learning-capable hardware device (hereafter referred to as device) that can be used for inference or training of a deep learning model. For each returned device, every parameter mentioned in GenParamNamegenParamNamegen_param_name must be equal to at least one of its corresponding values that appear in GenParamValuegenParamValuegen_param_value. A parameter can have more than one value by duplicating its name in GenParamNamegenParamNamegen_param_name and adding different corresponding value in GenParamValuegenParamValuegen_param_value.

A deep-learning-capable device is either supported directly through HALCON or through an AIΒ²-interface.

The devices that are supported directly through HALCON are equivalent to those that can be set to a deep learning model via set_dl_model_paramSetDlModelParam using 'runtime'"runtime" = 'cpu'"cpu" or 'runtime'"runtime" = 'gpu'"gpu". HALCON provides an internal implementation for the inference or training of a deep learning model for those devices. See Deep Learning for more details.

Devices that are supported through the AIΒ²-interface can also be set to a deep learning model using set_dl_model_paramSetDlModelParam. In this case the inference is not executed by HALCON but by the device itself.

query_available_dl_devicesQueryAvailableDlDevices returns a handle for each deep-learning-capable device supported through HALCON and through an AIΒ²-interface.

If a device is supported through HALCON and one or several AIΒ²-interfaces , query_available_dl_devicesQueryAvailableDlDevices returns a handle for HALCON and for each AIΒ²-interface.

GenParamNamegenParamNamegen_param_name can be used to filter for the devices. All GenParamNamegenParamNamegen_param_name that are gettable by get_dl_device_paramGetDlDeviceParam and that do not return a handle-typed value for GenParamValuegenParamValuegen_param_value are supported for filtering. See the operator reference of get_dl_device_paramGetDlDeviceParam for the list of gettable parameters. In addition, the following values are supported:

  • 'runtime'"runtime": The devices, which are directly supported by HALCON for this device type.

    List of values: 'cpu'"cpu", 'gpu'"gpu".

GenParamNamegenParamNamegen_param_name can have multiple entries for the same value. In this case filter combines the entries with a logical β€˜or’. Please see the example code below for some examples how to use the filter.

Execution informationπŸ”—

Execution information
  • Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).

  • Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).

  • Processed without parallelization.

This operator returns a handle. Note that the state of an instance of this handle type may be changed by specific operators even though the handle is used as an input parameter by those operators.

ExampleπŸ”—

(HDevelop)

* Query all deep-learning-capable hardware devices
query_available_dl_devices ([], [], DLDeviceHandles)

* Query all GPUs with ID 0 or 2
query_available_dl_devices (['type', 'id', 'id'], ['gpu', 0, 2],\
                            DLDeviceHandles)

* Query the unique GPU with ID 1 supported by HALCON
query_available_dl_devices (['runtime', 'id'], ['gpu', 1], DLDeviceHandles)

ResultπŸ”—

If the parameters are valid, the operator query_available_dl_devicesQueryAvailableDlDevices returns the value 2 (H_MSG_TRUE). If necessary, an exception is raised.
