================================================================================

This repository provides the pretrained model used in our Video2GIF work.

For information on how to use the code, please see our Tutorial.

In order to run the tutorial, you will first need to install the video2gif package by running

    python setup.py install --user

in the code directory.

If you don't have cuDNN > 4.0 available, you need to use the Lasagne fork that provides 3D convolutions and pooling implementations without cuDNN. You can get it from https://github.com/gyglim/Lasagne
