First of all bro this doesn't seems like a compilation error. You need to specify the locations properly.

As given in the installation documentation:-

Protobuf Compilation:
The Tensorflow Object Detection API uses Protobufs to configure model and training parameters. Before the framework can be used, the Protobuf libraries must be compiled. This should be done by running the following command from the tensorflow/models/research/ directory:

# From tensorflow/models/research/
protoc object_detection/protos/*.proto --python_out=.

Replace the above command as follows:
<path-to-protoc> <path-to-tensorflow\models\research>\object_detection\protos\*.proto --python_out=.

Remember to use ' \ ' instead of ' / ' while typing the path on windows.

If That doesn't work, Download the correct file: https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases/download/v3.3.0/protoc-3.3.0-win32.zip
Unzip it
Run the executable from the command line similar to my 2nd box above to compile the protobuf files for Python.

I used protoc-3.3.0 instead of 3.5.1 and it worked.
