⚙️ Usage

Training

You may download the dataset first, and then specify TRAIN_DIR, VAL_DIR and SAVE_DIR in the section TRAINING in config.yml.

For single GPU training:

python train.py

For multiple GPUs training:

accelerate config
accelerate launch train.py

If you have difficulties with the usage of accelerate, please refer to Accelerate.

Inference

Please first specify TRAIN_DIR, VAL_DIR and SAVE_DIR in section TESTING in config.yml.

python test.py
