ONNX Runtime is a high-performance inference engine for deploying machine learning models. It supports models in the Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) format, which is an open standard for representing machine learning models. ONNX Runtime is designed to be fast and efficient, making it suitable for production environments where performance is critical.
When using ONNX Runtime, you might encounter the following error message: ONNXRuntimeError: [ONNXRuntimeError] : 48 : FAIL : Model node execution order error. This error indicates that there is an issue with the order in which nodes are executed within the model graph.
During model inference, the process fails with the above error message. This typically happens when the model is loaded or when an inference session is initiated.
The error code 48 signifies a failure related to the execution order of nodes in the model. In ONNX models, nodes represent operations or computations, and they must be executed in a specific order to ensure the correct flow of data and computations. If the nodes are not ordered correctly, the model cannot be executed properly.
The root cause of this issue is often an incorrectly constructed model graph. This can occur if the model was not exported correctly from the original framework, or if there were modifications to the model that disrupted the node order.
To resolve this error, you need to ensure that the nodes in your ONNX model are executed in the correct order. Here are the steps to fix the issue:
Use a tool like Netron to visualize the model graph. Check the connections between nodes to ensure they follow the logical order of operations.
If you exported the model from a framework like PyTorch or TensorFlow, ensure that the export process was completed correctly. Refer to the PyTorch ONNX export guide or the TensorFlow ONNX export guide for detailed instructions.
If the model graph is small, you might be able to manually adjust the node order using a graph editor or by modifying the ONNX file directly. Be cautious with this approach as it can be error-prone.
Consider using the ONNX Model Optimizer to optimize and reorder the nodes automatically. This tool can help resolve node order issues by optimizing the model graph.
By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the "Model node execution order error" in ONNX Runtime. Ensuring the correct order of nodes is crucial for the successful execution of your model. For further assistance, consider reaching out to the ONNX Runtime GitHub community.
