## Changes: Remove tqdm, Add Custom Pip-Style Progress Bar
### Summary
Removed dependency on `tqdm` library and implemented a custom pip-style training progress bar using only standard Python libraries (`sys`, `time`, `threading`).
### Files Modified
- [train_road_anomaly_model.py](train_road_anomaly_model.py#L1-L30)
### Changes Made
#### 1. Removed Imports (Line 1-30)
**Before:**
```python
from rich.progress import (...)
from tqdm import tqdm
```
**After:**
```python
import threading
import time
```
#### 2. Custom Progress Bar Implementation (Line 386-462)
Replaced tqdm-based progress rendering with custom `_render_progress()` function that:
- **Displays real-time progress** with visual bar:
```
training: 45.0%|β–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘| 45/100 [00:30<00:40, 1.37 epoch/s] loss=0.3421 24.50img/s
```
- **Components**:
- Percentage: `45.0%`
- Visual progress bar: `β–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–ˆβ–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘β–‘` (30 char width)
- Completed/Total: `45/100`
- Time: `[elapsed<remaining, rate]`
- Training stats: `loss` and `speed` (img/s)
- **Features**:
- ETA calculation based on per-epoch timing
- 500ms update interval (smooth without excessive output)
- Time formatting: `MM:SS` or `HH:MM:SS`
- Final progress line includes newline for clean finish
### Benefits
βœ… **Zero external dependencies** - no tqdm, rich, or other progress bar libraries
βœ… **Lightweight** - uses only standard library
βœ… **Pip-style format** - familiar to Python developers
βœ… **Real-time stats** - displays loss and speed alongside progress
βœ… **ETA calculation** - estimates remaining time
βœ… **Threading-safe** - background thread updates don't block training
### Example Output
```

```
### Usage
No changes needed - progress bar appears automatically during training via background thread.
### Testing
Demo script created: `demo_progress_bar.py` demonstrates the progress bar output format.
