Installation

conda create -n pliks python=3.8
conda activate pliks

#Install PyTorch
conda install pytorch==1.9.1 torchvision==0.10.1 cudatoolkit=11.3 -c pytorch -c conda-forge

#Install PyTorch3D
conda install -c fvcore -c iopath -c conda-forge fvcore iopath
conda install -c bottler nvidiacub
pip install git+https://github.com/facebookresearch/pytorch3d.git@v0.4.0

#Install other dependencies for visualization
pip install vtk==9.1.0 vedo=2021.0.5 opencv=3.4.2

#Install torch_geometric to run the model from the paper
pip install torch-geometric==1.7.2 torch-scatter==2.0.9 torch-sparse==0.6.12

For visualization pytorch3d==0.4.0 is required. The sparse model does not require torch_geometric.
