library path issue in Step 6: Run a simple dataset loader test

[oztc]

when we run pytorch dense correspondence code, we encounter the following issue:

---

ImportError Traceback (most recent call last)

1 import dense_correspondence_manipulation.utils.utils as utils
2 utils.add_dense_correspondence_to_python_path()

----> 7 import torchvision.transforms.functional as F

ImportError: No module named functional

we have checked in the terminal by using the same code, obviously it is right library path. it is very strange why it is not right in Jupyter notebook.

Hi,

I have just re-run the simple_datasets_test.ipynb on my local machine and confirmed it is working. I think the error you are seeing is because we use a custom fork of torchvision, not the standard pip version. It is important to follow the steps in the tutorial to ensure that this module gets loaded correctly.

As an example showing that import torchvision.transforms.functional as F works try the following in a terminal inside your docker container.

manuelli@paladin-44:~/code$ use_pytorch_dense_correspondence 
using pdc
manuelli@paladin-44:~/code$ python

>>> import dense_correspondence_manipulation.utils.utils as utils
>>> utils.add_dense_correspondence_to_python_path()
>>> import torchvision
>>> print torchvision.__file__
/home/manuelli/code/external/pytorch-segmentation-detection/vision/torchvision/__init__.pyc
>>> import torchvision.transforms.functional as F
>>> print torchvision.transforms.functions.__file__
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'functions'
>>> print torchvision.transforms.functional.__file__
/home/manuelli/code/external/pytorch-segmentation-detection/vision/torchvision/transforms/functional.pyc

Note that torchvision points the the submodule of our repo located at external/pytorch-segmentation-detection/vision/torchvision. If instead you see torchvison.__file__ pointing to a system installed copy namely

>>> print torchvision.__file__
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/torchvision/__init__.pyc
>>> 

you have a problem. My guess is that you have this error because you didn't clone down the submodules of our repo. This should have been completed in Step 3 of the tutorial. Hopefully this resolves your issue

Hi, Manuelli,

  we have already cloned the submodules before we had submitted this issue. we will follow your steps to reproduce your resule, thanks.
