Installing pytorch_scatter

pytorch_scatter is a project which implements highly optimized pre-compiled wheels for some advanced scatter operations that the regular PyTorch package lacks. Algan uses one such scatter operation in its rendering pipeline. If you don’t have pytorch_scatter installed, Algan will perform the operation by combining many un-optimized operations. If you install pytorch_scatter, Algan will automatically detect it and use it instead, resulting in 10-30% faster rendering times.

To install it, follow the instructions at pytorch_scatter Make sure you select the same hardware version as your original Pytorch installation.
