We recommend that you install DeepLabCut-live in a conda environment (It is a standard python package though, and other distributions will also likely work). In this case, please install Anaconda:
Create a conda environment with python 3.7 and tensorflow:
conda create -n dlc-live python=3.7 tensorflow-gpu==1.13.1 # if using GPU
conda create -n dlc-live python=3.7 tensorflow==1.13.1 # if not using GPU
Activate the conda environment, install the DeepLabCut-live package, then test the installation:
conda activate dlc-live
pip install deeplabcut-live
dlc-live-test
Note, you can also just run the test:
dlc-live-test
If installed properly, this script will i) create a temporary folder ii) download the full_dog model from the DeepLabCut Model Zoo, iii) download a short video clip of a dog, and iv) run inference while displaying keypoints. v) remove the temporary folder.
Please note, you also should have curl installed on your computer (typically this is already installed on your system), but just in case, just run sudo apt install curl
