Installation

We provide instructions to install the required dependencies.

Requirements:

• python>=3.7
• pytorch==1.8 (should work with pytorch >=1.8 as well but not tested)

1. Unzip the repo and set the root directory:

   export ROOT=$(pwd)
   

2. To use the same environment you can use conda and the environment file vstates_env.yml file provided. Please refer to Miniconda for details on installing conda.

   MINICONDA_ROOT=[to your Miniconda/Anaconda root directory]
   conda env create -f vstates_env.yml --prefix $MINICONDA_ROOT/envs/vstates
   conda activate vstates
   

3. Install submodules:

   • Install Detectron2 (needed for SlowFast). If you have CUDA 11.1 and Pytorch 1.8 you can use:

   python -m pip install detectron2 -f \
   https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/detectron2/wheels/cu111/torch1.8/index.html
   

   Please refer to detectron2 repository for more details.

   • Slowfast:

   cd $ROOT/submodules/SlowFast
   python setup.py build develop
   

   • Fairseq:

   cd $ROOT/submodules/fairseq
   pip install -e .
   

   • cocoapi:

   cd $ROOT/submodules/cocoapi/PythonAPI
   make
   

   • coco-caption: (NOTE: You may need to install java). No additional steps are needed.

   • coval:

   cd $ROOT/submodules/coval
   pip install -e .
