r"""Tool to export an object detection model for inference.

Prepares an object detection tensorflow graph for inference using model
configuration and an optional trained checkpoint. Outputs inference
graph, associated checkpoint files, a frozen inference graph and a
SavedModel (https://tensorflow.github.io/serving/serving_basic.html).

The inference graph contains one of three input nodes depending on the user
specified option.
  * `image_tensor`: Accepts a uint8 4-D tensor of shape [1, None, None, 3]
  * `encoded_image_string_tensor`: Accepts a scalar string tensor of encoded PNG
    or JPEG image.
  * `tf_example`: Accepts a serialized TFExample proto. The batch size in this
    case is always 1.

and the following output nodes returned by the model.postprocess(..):
  * `num_detections`: Outputs float32 tensors of the form [batch]
      that specifies the number of valid boxes per image in the batch.
  * `detection_boxes`: Outputs float32 tensors of the form
      [batch, num_boxes, 4] containing detected boxes.
  * `detection_scores`: Outputs float32 tensors of the form
      [batch, num_boxes] containing class scores for the detections.
  * `detection_classes`: Outputs float32 tensors of the form
      [batch, num_boxes] containing classes for the detections.
  * `detection_masks`: Outputs float32 tensors of the form
      [batch, num_boxes, mask_height, mask_width] containing predicted instance
      masks for each box if its present in the dictionary of postprocessed
      tensors returned by the model.

Notes:
 * Currently `batch` is always 1, but we will support `batch` > 1 in the future.
 * This tool uses `use_moving_averages` from eval_config to decide which
   weights to freeze.

Example Usage:
--------------
python export_inference_graph \
    --input_type image_tensor \
    --pipeline_config_path path/to/ssd_inception_v2.config \
    --trained_checkpoint_prefix path/to/model.ckpt \
    --output_directory path/to/exported_model_directory

The expected output would be in the directory
path/to/exported_model_directory (which is created if it does not exist)
with contents:
 - graph.pbtxt
 - model.ckpt.data-00000-of-00001
 - model.ckpt.info
 - model.ckpt.meta
 - frozen_inference_graph.pb
 + saved_model (a directory)
