Usage of pre-trained Caffe models in CNTK?

[aabramovrepo]

Hello everyone,

just curious whether there is a possibility to load pre-trained Caffe models in CNTK?! Thanks!

Best,
Alexey

Hello,
Not yet, but for most popular network architectures this should be doable. We've got a few similar requests and considering writing a tool which would perform a conversion Caffe <-> CNTK.

Thanks for the update! Do you have any idea when such a tool will be available?

Ping. Any update on this issue?

Caffe converter is being tested internally and we hope to get this tool ready soon. Thank you for your patience.

Are you converting Torch models as well?

Any target date for release of the caffe converter? A popular model I have seen is VGG-Face, have you tried with that model?

What is the progress on the internal testing of the CNTK <--> Caffe converter?

Any progress on the Caffe to CNTK converter?

Hi,
is there any release date scheduled for the caffe <--> cntk converter?
In my opinion it would be a great feature :)

Is there any specific reason for not releasing the converter ? A CNTK <--> Caffe converter will be a great contribution and I am sure many people are looking forward to it.
