Installation Instructions for MATLAB

Table of contents

Windows

Requirements:

  1. MATLAB
  2. Visual Studio (Community or Profesional)
  3. A CUDA capable GPU from NVIDIA with compute capability greater or equal to 3.0
  4. CUDA Toolkit (9.2 or newer)

Tested on

Software Version
Windows 7, 8, 10.
MATLAB 2014b 2016b 2017a 2018b
CUDA 9.2 10
Visual Studio 2010 2013 2015

Simple Instructions

  1. Install MATLAB, Visual Studio and CUDA
  2. Rename either mex_CUDA_win64_MVS2013.xml (Visual Studio 2013 or older) or mex_CUDA_win64_MVS2015.xml(Visual Studio 2015 or newer) to mex_CUDA_win64.xml
  3. Run Compile.m

A succesfull installation should be able to execute the script at TIGRE/MATLAB/Demos/d03_generateData.m without errors.

Step by Step Instructions:

  1. Install MATLAB

  2. Install CUDA

    Any version avobe 9.2 has been tested, however its recommended to get the latests version as possible, for performance and support.

    Detailed installation guide
    NOTE: In windows at least, the User has to have no spaces.

  3. Install Visiual Studio

    Make sure you install C++.
    Download link for the latest version
    Download link for older versions
    NOTE: In windows at least, the User has to have no spaces.

  4. Download TIGRE

    If you are using git, run: git clone https://github.com/CERN/TIGRE.git
    Manually download zip file oherwise.

  5. Test the correct configuration of Visual Studio

    Open MATLAB and run mex -setup -v. Among other things, the output should contain:

    ... Looking for compiler 'Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 (C)' ...
... Looking for registry setting 'HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\SxS\VC7' 14.0 ...No.
... Looking for registry setting 'HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\SxS\VC7' 14.0 ...No.
... Looking for registry setting 'HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\VisualStudio\SxS\VC7' 14.0 ...Yes ('C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\').
... Looking for file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\amd64\cl.exe' ...Yes.
... Looking for folder 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC' ...Yes.

    Note the last 3 Yes. If those are not there it means that you do not have installed C++ on step 3 of this tutorial.
    To fix:
    -go to Control panel>Add or remove programs -> Visual studio community 20XX -> modify
    -Lanugages -> Visual C++

    Make sure that when you run mex -setup -v C++ is installed and Visual Studio is selected as the compiler for C/C++

  6. Check that MALTAB knows where Visual Studio and CUDA are

    Run the following commands:

    • getenv('CUDA_PATH');
    • getenv('VS120COMNTOOLS'); (MVS2013) getenv('VS140COMNTOOLS'); (MVS2015 or newer)

    They should return something similar to:

    • 'C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v9.2'
    • 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\Tools\'

    If any of these return empty, your installation of CUDA or Visual Studio did not happen successfully or you did install it in the non-standard way. Either reinstall, or configure this variables (use setenv()) to point to the correct installation locations.

  7. Rename either mex_CUDA_win64_MVS2013.xml (Visual Studio 2013 or older) or mex_CUDA_win64_MVS2015.xml(Visual Studio 2015 or newer) to mex_CUDA_win64.xml

  8. By opening MATLAB on yourTIGREpath/MATLAB, execute Compile.m

    If it fails, try opening mex_CUDA_win64.xml with your favourite editor and changing line 125 to link to your local nvcc location.

  9. Initialize TIGRE by typing InitTIGRE on the MATLAB Command Window.

  10. Run file TIGRE/MATLAB/Demos/d03_generateData.m. If it successfully executes, you have installed and compiled TIGRE properly.

Linux

Requirements:

  1. MATLAB
  2. gcc
  3. A CUDA capable GPU from NVIDIA with compute capability greater or equal to 3.0
  4. CUDA Toolkit (9.2 or newer)

Tested on

Software Version
Ubuntu 16.04 17.10
MATLAB 2017a 2018b
CUDA 9.2 10.0
gcc 6.4.0 7.2.0

Simple Instructions

  1. Install MATLAB, gcc and CUDA
  2. Run Compile.m

A succesfull installation should be able to execute the script at TIGRE/MATLAB/Demos/d03_generateData.m without errors.

Step by Step Instructions:1

  1. Install MATLAB

  2. Install CUDA

    Installing CUDA in linux (specially one with a GUI) can be a challenge. Please follow NVIDIAs instructions carefully.
    CUDA download link

  3. Install gcc

    gcc should already be installed in your linux, as it is part of the linux distribution.
    If you need to install an older version of gcc, read here.

  4. Download TIGRE

    If you are using git, run: git clone https://github.com/CERN/TIGRE.git
    Manually download zip file oherwise.

  5. Make sure your terminal knows where CUDA is.

    For Ubuntu:

    • Using your favourite test editor, open ~/.bashrc. e.g. gedit ~/.bashrc.

    • Append to the file the following lines:

      export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/cuda/lib64
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/cuda/bin

    • restart your terminal

  6. From a terminal, execute MATLAB as matlab and run Compile.m located on TIGRE/MATLAB

  7. Run file TIGRE/MATLAB/Demos/d03_generateData.m. If it successfully executes, you have installed and compiled TIGRE properly.

1 Testing by the TIGRE team in Linux is limited, thus the step by step instructions are less detailed than expected. Please do contact us if you are having trouble or would like to contribute to the instructions.
