ImportError: cannot import name 'estimator' from 'tensorflow.compat.v1'

[libofei2004]

I try to train an ssd_mobilenetv1 tflite model in wsl2 ubuntu22 with tensorflow 2.17 and python3.10.

My step is:

git clone https://github.com/tensorflow/models.git
cd models/research/
protoc object_detection/protos/*.proto --python_out=.
cp object_detection/packages/tf2/setup.py .
python -m pip install .

python model_main_tf2.py \
    --pipeline_config_path=/mnt/d/workspace/PycharmProjects/models/research/object_detection/configs/tf2/ssd_mobilenet_v1_fpn_640x640_coco17_tpu-8.config \
    --model_dir=/mnt/d/workspace/imgupload/img/selected1/bt3/train/model \
    --alsologtostderr

but the errors occured: 2024-08-13 23:38:50.434079: I tensorflow/core/util/port.cc:153] oneDNN custom operations are on.

Try tensorflow version <= 2.15

Try tensorflow version <= 2.15

This is not the solution. model_main_tf2.py will not work at all when downgraded to tensorflow 2.15 due to missing dependencies and calling "pip3 install --user -r models/official/requirements.txt" install back tensorflow 2.18.

Any news on that? I am facing the same issue
