Requirements

• Python 2.7
• PyTorch tested on version 0.3.0.post4

Installation

Setup virtualenv

virtualenv venv_cmr
source venv_cmr/bin/activate
pip install -U pip
deactivate
source venv_cmr/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Install Neural Mesh Renderer and Perceptual loss

cd external;

Demo

1. From the cmr directory, download the trained model:

wget https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~kanazawa/cachedir/cmr/model.tar.gz & tar -vzxf model.tar.gz

You should see cmr/cachedir/snapshots/bird_net/

2. Run the demo:

python -m cmr.demo --name bird_net --num_train_epoch 500 --img_path cmr/demo_data/img1.jpg
python -m cmr.demo --name bird_net --num_train_epoch 500 --img_path cmr/demo_data/birdie.jpg

Training
