## Installation

- From pip （recommend） : ``pip install bmtrain``

- From source code: download the package and run ``pip install .``

Installing BMTrain may take a few to ten minutes, as it requires compiling the c/cuda source code at the time of installation.
We recommend compiling BMTrain directly in the training environment to avoid potential problems caused by the different environments.
