win7_64bit+vs2013+cuda7.5+opencv2.4.10 Configuring the Caffe Environment

Reference blog:

1. Installation, configuration and testing of CUDA7.5 in Win7 Environment (VS2010)

2, Win7_64bit + VS2013 + CUDA7.5 + Opencv2.4.10 successfully configured Caffe environment

Precautions:

1. Cuda's usefulness: At present, with the progress of hardware technology, the GPU (graphics processing Unit, graphic processor) is used to train and realize the neural network algorithm. The basis of GPU computing is NVIDIA's CUDA environment.

2. The major version of Caffe (Caffe-master) only supports Linux, so download the dedicated version of Caffe Windows.

3, Caffe compilation requires third-party library support, 3rdparty is the required third-party library, usually includes:

A.boost function Library, is the http://www.boost.org/, download the required version library.

B.OPENCV Open Source Computer Vision Library, to the official website to download just fine.

C.openblas, is a high-performance multicore blas (Basic Linear Algebra subprograms, Base linear algebra sub-Library), is http://www.openblas.net/, note to download the 64-bit window version.

D.glog is Google's open source API, but Google is not on the go, Fq Bar-. -

E.levelldb, is also Google's Open Source Library, but also on Google, but here is a link can be downloaded directly https://leveldb.googlecode.com/archive/windows.zip

F.protobuf, is also Google's Open Source Library, also on Google, in the Baidu Cloud found a version Http://pan.baidu.com/s/1pJlZubT

4. "Application does not start properly (0xc000007b)" appears.

This may be because:

A. You need to add the path of the./3rdparty/bin to the system environment variable path;

B. The previously used OpenCV is Win32 bit, and Caffe uses the release is 64-bit configuration, so in the environment variable is not only to match x86 OpenCV, Vc12\bin x64.
