How to extract weights and other variable values from tensorflow checkpoint without restoring the graph?












1














Provided a checkpoint file but no meta graph or code that produced the network, I want to extract the stored values of the variables in the checkpoint file.



So without restoring the graph, how do I extract the values stored in thr checkpoint. I could potentially convert everything from the checkpoint to a dictionary of numpy arrays or something similar.

          Found the solution:



          reader = tf.train.NewCheckpointReader("/path/to/checkpoint")
          shapes_dict = reader.get_variable_to_shape_map() # use it to get the variable names
          extracted_values = reader.get_tensor(shapes_dict.keys()[0])
          # array([[ 0. , -1.8053141],
          # [-1.5647348, 0. ]], dtype=float32)


          The tf.train.NewCheckpointReader is not really documented in current documentation of API r1.12.
          But you can see the usage example in the source code here.
