Installation

We recommend to use Python 3.10+ and PyTorch (version >= v1.12.0)

Instructions below use Conda, if you don't have Conda installed, you can check out How to Install Conda.

# Clone the repo
git clone git@github.com:apple/ml-cvnets.git
cd ml-cvnets

# Create a virtual env. We use Conda
conda create -n cvnets python=3.10.8
conda activate cvnets

# install requirements and CVNets package
pip install -r requirements.txt -c constraints.txt
pip install --editable .
