# Image Embedding with Timm
*author: Jael Gu, Filip*
## Desription
An image embedding operator generates a vector given an image.
This operator extracts features for image with pretrained models provided by [Timm](https://github.com/rwightman/pytorch-image-models).
Timm is a deep-learning library developed by [Ross Wightman](https://twitter.com/wightmanr),
which maintains SOTA deep-learning models and tools in computer vision.
## Code Example
Load an image from path './dog.jpg'
and use the pretrained ResNet50 model ('resnet50') to generate an image embedding.
*Write the pipeline in simplified style*:
```python
from towhee import dc
dc.glob('./dog.jpg') \
.image_decode.cv2() \
.image_embedding.timm(model_name='resnet50') \
.show()
```
*Write a same pipeline with explicit inputs/outputs name specifications:*
```python
from towhee import dc
dc.glob['path']('./dog.jpg') \
.image_decode.cv2['path', 'img']() \
.image_embedding.timm['img', 'vec'](model_name='resnet50') \
.select('vec') \
.to_list()
```
[array([0. , 0. , 0. , ..., 0. , 0.01748613,
0. ], dtype=float32)]
## Factory Constructor
Create the operator via the following factory method
***image_embedding.timm(model_name='resnet34', num_classes=1000, skip_preprocess=False)***
**Parameters:**
***model_name***: *str*
​ The model name in string. The default value is "resnet34".
Refer [Timm Docs](https://fastai.github.io/timmdocs/#List-Models-with-Pretrained-Weights) to get a full list of supported models.
***num_classes***: *int*
​ The number of classes. The default value is 1000.
It is related to model and dataset.
***skip_preprocess***: *bool*
​ Flag to control whether to skip image preprocess, defaults to False.
If set to True, image preprocess steps such as transform, normalization will be skipped.
In this case, the user should guarantee that all the input images are already reprocessed properly, and thus can be fed to model directly.
## Interface
An image embedding operator takes an image in ndarray as input.
It uses the pre-trained model specified by model name to generate an image embedding in ndarray.
**Parameters:**
***img***: *numpy.ndarray*
​ The decoded image data in numpy.ndarray.
**Returns**: *numpy.ndarray*
​ The image embedding extracted by model.
