Adding custom layer(absval) for openvino inference

[Nandanan__Kiran]

Hi,

 We are trying to convert our siamese network caffemodel to openvino format for inference. The absval layer is not supported by openvino. How do we go about adding it as custom layer for openvino inference?

Dear Nandanan, Kiran,

And here is additional info. This forum post I wrote is a little dated but many customers have been successful with it. Just redirect the 2018 dldt github links to 2019.

Hope it helps,
