Inference on Mobilenet v1 SSD using the converted model fails with error

[V_B__Anakha]

Hi,

I am trying to run inference on Mobilenet v1 SSD COCO downloaded from the tensorflow website. I converted the frozen model to the IR using the following command.

sudo /opt/intel/openvino/deployment_tools/model_optimizer/mo.py --input_meta_graph /home/user1/Desktop/IntelNCS/Mobilenetv1_SSD/model.ckpt.meta --tensorflow_use_custom_operations_config /opt/intel/openvino_2019.2.242/deployment_tools/model_optimizer/extensions/front/tf/ssd_support.json --tensorflow_object_detection_api_pipeline_config /home/user1/Desktop/IntelNCS/Mobilenetv1_SSD/pipeline.config  --data_type half --output_dir /home/user1/Desktop/Anakha/Mobilenetv1_SSD --model_name ssd_mobilenet_v1

This command generated the .xml and .bin files successfully.

However while doing the inference I am getting the following error.

[ INFO ] InferenceEngine:

======================================================

The command used for inference:

./object_detection_sample_ssd -i /home/user1/Desktop/IntelNCS/car_1.bmp -m /home/user1/Desktop/Anakha/Mobilenetv1_SSD/ssd_mobilenet_v1.xml -d MYRIAD

The object_detection_sample_ssd is located in the /home/user1/inference_engine_samples_build/intel64/Release folder.

Kindly let me know if I am doing something wrong with the inference command. Looking forward for help.
