MaskDINO support for CPU-only inference
Hi,
-
The MaskDINO uses the DETR (https://github.com/fundamentalvision/Deformable-DETR) module which wasn't available in CPU-Only format until recently. But there's a new open source implementation at Huggingface now which supports CPU (https://github.com/fundamentalvision/Deformable-DETR/issues/160). Are the authors of this paper or anyone else planning to build the MaskDINO CPU-Only inference support?

Also the install docs of MaskDINO mention that in absence of GPU, this command can be used for setup -
To build on a system that does not have a GPU device but provide the drivers: TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST='8.0' FORCE_CUDA=1 python setup.py build install
https://github.com/IDEA-Research/MaskDINO/blob/main/INSTALL.md#:~:text=TORCH_CUDA_ARCH_LIST%3D%278.0%27%20FORCE_CUDA%3D1%20python%20setup.py%20build%20install I am a bit confused about this part, because without GPU, how would one be able to set up drivers (CUDA) on any system?
- I was able to train the model on a GPU machine but I don't have access to a GPU now and I wanted to run inference on a CPU machine, if anyone can help with that or confirm CPU-only inference is not possible for MaskDINO as of now, it would be very helpful. Thanks!
Hey, we did not try CPU inference before, so we can not provide any suggestions now.
