MetaML v2

Installation

Preparation:

1. Install Anaconda or Miniconda. To install Miniconda, follow the instructions here.

2. Optional dependencies:

   • GPU: Install the Nvidia driver. Ensure that nvidia-smi can be invoked successfully. This version of the software has been tested with Nvidia driver version 525.

   • Vivado HLS: Install Vivado 2019.2 or 2020.1 (recommended). For Ubuntu, install the following packages before installing Vivado HLS:

     sudo apt install libtinfo5 libncurses5 libx11-6 libc6-dev

     Once it is installed, you must source settings64.sh. We recommend adding the following your .bashrc:

     source /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2020.1/settings64.sh

3. Clone this repository:

    git clone git@github.com:custom-computing-ic/metaml2.git

4. Speed-up anaconda solver (not required but highly recommended) by installing libnamba:

   conda update -n base conda
   conda install -n base conda-libmamba-solver
   conda config --set solver libmamba

5. Create project environment:

   Run conda.env.build script:

   bash conda.env.build # artisan or heterograph

6. Activate project environment:

   conda activate metaml
