# Python
It was programmed with 3.10.4. And I used some 3.10 Python expression. Thus you might get problems with older Python versions.
# C++
You need to modify the Makefile in the C++ directory to your Python installation.
In addition your Python installation needs the PyBind11 package installed. You might want to perform a
pip install pybind11
The Makefile uses clang as a compiler. If you want something else then you need to change the Makefile.
For CUDA I used version 12.0.
# C++
Three .json config files are required:
dataset.json : Information about the dataset
network.json : Describes the network architecture
def.json : Controlls the other parameters
If you want to load existing weights, just put them in a sub-folder called Previous
