ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'object_detection'

[LeeyMessi]

I am using Win10 and Spyder, I have tried to run : generate_tfrecord.py, Unfortunately，shows "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'object_detection'", I guess the problem is the path, how to set the path in spyder?

I'm hitting this hurdle too. Same environment.

not sure concerning windows, but on Ubuntu you have to deploy object detection module by running setup.py from the research folder, then set PYTHONPATH accordingly please check the tensorflow github for the correct run command configuration

on win10 go to ( \model master\models-master\research) open cmd in this path and type python setup.py install it should work

I've managed to solve this problem in my system (win 10). The solution is not very straightforward but here :

1. First u need to clone Tensorflow Object Detection API repository https://github.com/tensorflow/models.
2. Follow the installation provided in https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/installation.md
3. In the step 2, you are required to compile protobuf library, so download the protobuf compiler at https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases/latest (at the time of this writing (3.5.1), there's a bug in protoc which may or may not related to the Windows environment, my solution is use the protoc v 3.4.0)
4. Append the PYTHONPATH environment variable with the directory of <your cloned tensorflow object detection api>/research/ and <your cloned tensorflow object detection api>/research/slim (dont forget to add the PYTHONPATH to Path if you haven't done so.
5. No more ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'object_detection'

Thank you. It worked. (y)

Me too! Thanks

is that path is found in Tensorflow Object Detection API repository ???

Hi, you have to do the following commands to make it work for you : protoc object_detection/protos/*.proto --python_out=. Add the following to your ~/.bashrc : export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:<PATH_TO_TF>/TensorFlow/models/research/object_detection:<PATH_TO_TF>/TensorFlow/models/research:<PATH_TO_TF>/TensorFlow/models/research/slim

[yashmodi123]

thank you its literally worked

[systems-apatrick]

pip install tensorflow-object-detection-api

Adding the full path to the object detection module solved the error in my case

import sys sys.path.append(..../full_path_to_object_detection_module/)

[armansamimi]

pip install tensorflow-object-detection-api

it did work, thanks so much

Hi, I am getting the following errors.. when I run the main training program..

i got this error while i was trying to run this code. and i have already installed tensorflow package from conda. what shuld i di to solve this error?
