# create and activate environment
conda env create -n avsd -f=env.yml
conda activate avsd

• download 'split'.json data at: video-dialog.com
• Extracted video, audio, and dialog features can be downloaded from here

• Build dialogs json file with otions using makejson_with_options.py (output: 'split'_options.json)

• Adapt JSON format using convert_json_to_visdial_style.py (output: 'split'_options_2.json can be renamed after to 'split'_options.json)

• Build tokenized captions, dialogs and image paths with prepro.py (output: dialogs.h5 and params.json)

• Build the image features (if working with images) using prepro_img_vgg16.lua or prepro_img_resnet.lua from the batra-mlp-lab/visdial-challenge-starter-pytorch (output: data_img.h5)

• Build video features I3D (output: data_video.h5) https://github.com/piergiaj/pytorch-i3d.git

• Build audio features AENET (output: data_audio.h5) https://github.com/znaoya/aenet.git

• Training: python train.py

• evaluation: python evaluate.py --use_gt
