TO_RUN_FIG11
To generate Figure11 on the paper [1].
Running "run_fig11.ps1" powershell script will both build and run the binary. However,
The entire codebase is quite large and has many dependencies. Most of the dependencies
are statically compiled and available in the repository.
Since GRSI[2] requires the code to be worked on a fresh install some dependencies needs to be downloaded manually.
The instructions below are for a Windows 11 Operating System.
HW requirements:
- An NVIDIA GPU (GTX1XXX series or newer)
- OpenGL capable hardware (can be the NVIDIA GPU or on-board integrated GPU)
Manual installation required dependencies include, (You can download via these links):
*CUDA*:
https://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/12.3.0/network_installers/cuda_12.3.0_windows_network.exe
*NVIDIA OptiX*:
https://developer.nvidia.com/optix/downloads/7.6.0/win64
*Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 Community*: (Any CUDA conforming version should compile the codebase (please check the CUDA documentation)
https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/thank-you-downloading-visual-studio/?sku=Community&channel=Release&version=VS2022&source=VSLandingPage&cid=2030&passive=false
- Visual studio should be installed with MSVC C++ compiler (Check "C++ Desktop Development" option while installing).
*Python*:
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.12.3/python-3.12.3-amd64.exe
- Pyhton scripts are available in the repository
Since the operating system is Windows, all these installations require human interaction; thus we are unable to include these on the script.
Then finally run "run_fig11.ps1" (It is a powershell script, so it should be run on a powershell terminal). It should produce the images and FLIP results.
