Requirements

pytorch, torchvision, pytorch-lightning, hydra-core
pip intall -r requirements.txt

The following command installs supported torch and torhvision versions in case you get an CUDA Kernel issue:

pip install torch==1.11.0+cu113 torchvision==0.12.0+cu113 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html

Generate Representation

Example code to generate representations for the NTU dataset:

python generate_representation_ntu.py <ntu_skeleton_dir> $DATASET_FOLDER <split>

where split is either cross_subject, cross_setup, one_shot

Representations must be placed inside a $DATASET_FOLDER that an environment variable points to.

Precalculated representations

We provide precalculated representations for intermediate result reproduction:

Train

Example:

Simitate

python train.py dataset=simitate model_name=efficientnet learning_rate=0.1 net="efficientnet"

Exemplary, this command trains using the simitate dataset.
