The poster pdf is also available.

How to run

1. install Nvidia driver 375 + cuda 8.0 + cudnn v5.1
2. install the conda environment by: bash installEnv.sh
   • DON'T WORRY, conda will generate an isolated environment for SurfaceNet with python2.7, anaconda, theano, ... etc. That means all your libraries / packeges' version will not be affacted, at the same time the ~/.bashrc file will not be changed.
   • before you run, PLEASE change the CUDA/CUDNN path in the files:
     • ./config/activate-cuda.sh change the 1st line to your cuda path, e.g.: export CUDA_ROOT=/usr/local/cuda
     • ./config/activate-cudnn.sh change the 1st line to your cudnn path, e.g.: export CUDNN_ROOT=/home/<your-user-name>/libs/cudnn
3. download the network model to the folder "./inputs/SurfaceNet_models" from the Dropbox folder
4. if the conda environment has been installed, one can activate it by: . activate SurfaceNet; deactivate it by: . deactivate.
5. in terminal run: python main.py
