Can't compile Gluoncv model on deeplens

Question

In my ipynb I download a pre-trained model  and push to S3
```
import numpy as np
import mxnet as mx
import gluoncv as gcv
import tarfile

net = gcv.model_zoo.get_model("ssd_512_resnet50_v1_voc", pretrained=True)
net.hybridize()
net(mx.nd.ones((1, 3, 512, 512)))
net.export("model")
tar = tarfile.open("ssd_512_resnet50_v1_voc.tar.gz", "w:gz")

for name in ["model-0000.params", "model-symbol.json"]:
    tar.add(name)
tar.close()

sess.upload_data(
    path="ssd_512_resnet50_v1_voc.tar.gz", bucket=bucket, key_prefix=pretrained_model_sub_folder
)
```

I can download the model ok with deeplens project. I see the updated .params and .json file in the /opt/awscam/artifact/ dir. But when I try and compile the model in my inference script on the Deeplens device:

```
error, model_path = mo.optimize('model', 512, 512, 'MXNet')
```
I get the following compile error

```

```

I think there must be a mismatch in versions between mxnet, gluoncv, intel openvino compiler... but stuck on this issue. Any help appreciated.

Answer

Dear Customer,

Thank you for using AWS DeepLens.

Looking at the error stack, it seems to be a syntax error in script mo.py with regards to re.sub(b', question #\d+', '', std_err). As the inference script that is been used for your example is not available, that makes it difficult to narrow the issue and additionally we would not be able to provide code support if the issue is related to the custom script build by user.

I'd recommend to overcome the syntax error and try again, if you still encounter error, I'd recommend you to reach out to AWS Support for further investigation of the issue along with all the details and logs as sharing logs is not recommended to share on this platform.

Answer

My understanding is that all MXNet models need to be compiled to XML format to be run on the deeplens device under Intel openvino runtime environment.

All I am doing is calling the optimizer to do this process. This is not my script you can open any python terminal and type the following.

```
import mo
error, model_path = mo.optimize('model', 512, 512, 'MXNet')
```

If this is not the correct process please tell me what is.

How to create a lambda inference function

https://www.awsdeeplens.recipes/300_intermediate/330_guess_drawing/332_inference/

AWS DeepLens uses the Intel OpenVino model optimizer to optimize the ML model to run on DeepLens hardware. The following code optimizes a model to run locally:

```
error, model_path = mo.optimize(model_name, INPUT_WIDTH, INPUT_HEIGHT)
```

I get the error after calling this function
