Usage

1. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/johanna-rock/im_ricnn.git
2. Create a virtual environment from the included environment.yml and activate it
   1. Create using conda: conda env create -f environment.yml
   2. Activate using conda: conda activate im-cnn-env
3. Set the python path using export PYTHONPATH="/path/to/imRICnn"
4. Download a reduced data set of simulated radar examples (200 training, 25 validation, 25 test) from https://cloud.tugraz.at/index.php/s/6GEjJaGcf7eKp2B, unzip the file and save it to imRICnn/data/radar-data. The full data set of simulated examples is now also available, you can download it from https://nextcloud.spsc.tugraz.at/s/2qEEP6D2rHtFX64.

Training

Run python -m run_scripts.run_training.py to train and evaluate a CNN with the configuration specified in run_training.py.

Evaluation

Run python -m run_scripts.run_evaluation.py to evaluate a pre-trained model with the configuration specified in run_evaluation.py.
