RegNetX-400MF (ONNX) – Renesas X5H

Introduction

This repository hosts RegNetX-400MF, targeting the Renesas R-Car X5H platform for image-classification inference on the NPX6 NPU.

Model Architecture: RegNetX-400MF — a member of the RegNet design-space family (Radosavovic et al.), using a simple regular network structure with a linear per-block width parameterization, at a ~400M-FLOP compute budget
Source Model: open-mmlab/mmpretrain
Task: image-classification (dataset: imagenet-1k)

Deployment Flow

The FP32 ONNX model is auto-cast to INT8 by the Renesas MWMX toolchain at compile time — no separate quantization step is required.

Provided Artifacts

Artifact	Status	Notes
FP32 (ONNX)	⏳ Pending	`fp32/regnetx_400mf_8xb128_in1k.onnx` — to be added; will be auto-cast to INT8 by the MWMX toolchain at compile time (see Deployment Flow above); no separate INT8 file will be shipped

Performance

Measured on Renesas R-Car X5H via the MWMX runtime (APM80 ship-performance CI pipeline).

ONNX Runtime – Renesas EP v2.1.0 (MWMX 2.2 ENG4)

Measured on R-Car X5H with ONNX Runtime + Renesas Execution Provider (INT8 auto-cast); nodes the NPU cannot run fall back to the CPU EP. Batch size 1, 1 NPU. Source: ORT Renesas EP test report, status 2026-09-30. This section supersedes earlier ORT figures in this card.

Component	AI Cores	Latency (ms)	Throughput (fps)	NPU Inference (ms)	NPU %	CPU + Overhead %	Portable pkg NPU-only (ms)
Full model	1	1.985	503.8	1.308	65.9 %	34.1 %	1.28818
Full model	12	2.863	349.3	1.62	56.6 %	43.4 %	1.57068

12-core latency is not always lower than 1-core: small models are dominated by CPU-side overhead.
