first-order-motion-windows-gui's Introduction

first-order-motion-windows-gui

All credits to the creators of the popular First-Order-Motion model
A simple Windows GUI coded in Tkinter(Tk) Python to interface with the Pytorch model
Pretty much a lazy effort to quickly setup this tool conveniently
main_gui.py contains the main Tk code and initiates network inference. It has not been refactored and pretty messy 😬.
Only demo.py and animate.py from the original repo are modified to interface with Tk.
start.bat activates the virtual environment and initiates the GUI.
start.exe is an executable version of the batch script which does not show the console. Compiled using this.
hide.vbs executes start.bat without showing the console/terminal. It is included here as a backup and is not required.
Inno Setup is used to package the required files into one the [executable file](release link). The configuration file is included in this repo.

Installation

Install via the executable file which goes through a typical Windows graphical installation process.
The current release (~1.3 GB after extraction) bundles a 64-bit virtual Python 3.7.5 environment, Pytorch scripts and weights for the Pytorch network.
No Linux or Mac support because laziness, and the virtual Python environment only includes Windows variants of the required modules
Current release only includes the CPU version of Pytorch 1.0.0.
No CUDA support yet because the cudatoolkit version depends on the CUDA version installed in the system. Note to self: write a script to check for CUDA availability and then install appropriate CUDA dependencies.
Consequently, the current release without CUDA is slow as heck.
Docker is not considered because Windows installation is troublesome, but could solve cross-platform issues.
