Installation

Python 3.7+ is required, as well as NumPy and Numba. To install the latest stable version of itembed, the recommended source is PyPI:

pip install itembed

To install directly from source:

pip install git+https://github.com/sdsc-innovation/itembed.git

After installation, you can verify by checking the version:

import itembed

print(itembed.__version__)

As itembed relies on Numba for fast code generation, some of the performance tips provided in their documentation may apply. In particular, Intel's short vector math library can be installed to increase performances.
