## Installation

Follow these steps to set up the evaluation environment:

1. **Create the Environment**
    ```bash
    conda create --name eval python=3.9
    ```

2. **Install PyTorch and Dependencies**
    ```bash
    pip install torch==2.0.1 torchvision==0.15.2 torchaudio==2.0.2
    ```
    > ⚠️ Ensure the CUDA toolkit version matches your installed PyTorch version.

3. **Install Pytorch Kinematics**
    ```bash
    cd ./pytorch_kinematics
    pip install -e .
    ```

4. **Install Remaining Requirements**
    ```bash
    pip install -r requirements_eval.txt
    ```
