Prerequisites

• docker
• docker-compose

Setup

Step I: create environment

The first step is to create your environment.

conda create --name <env-name> python=3.11

Step II: install dependencies

The necessary modules for this python project can be installed with the given requirements.txt file.

conda activate <env-name>
pip install -r requirements.txt

Step III: downloading data

If you followed the steps before the dvc command is now available. Run the following command in the git root directory to download the data:

dvc update -R data/

Running the Benchmark

The benchmarking process involves several steps managed by DVC:

1. Running the DVC Pipeline:

   • Execute the main DVC pipeline which orchestrates the data processing and benchmarking tasks with dvc exp run.

2. Reviewing Results:

   • Use the dvc exp show command to visualize and analyze the results of the experiments conducted as part of the benchmark.
