Models: Cannot past the test

[stereomatchingkiss]

Python : 3.6.7, 64bits
os : windows 10
tensorflow: 1.15(else cannot find the contrib module)

I install the tensorflow and the object detection api as following

1. install anaconda
2. create new environment, must use python3.6 else you cannot install tensorflow on windows
conda create --name tf python=3.6
3. conda activate tf
4. pip install tensorflow==1.15
5. pip install tensorflow-object-detection-api
6. install other package 

pip install --user Cython
pip install --user contextlib2
pip install --user pillow
pip install --user lxml
pip install --user jupyter
pip install --user matplotlib

7. git clone https://github.com/tensorflow/models

8. cd to tensorflow/models/research/
9. download protocol buffer--https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases

I am using protoc-3.10.1-win64.zip

10. Unzip it, add the path to system where protoc exist(ex : your_path\protobuf\bin)

11. cd to tensorflow/models/research/
protoc object_detection/protos/*.proto --python_out=.

12. create a text file in your\Anaconda\environment\path\Lib\site-packages, rename it to tensorflow_model.pth, add the following two lines:
your\Anaconda\environment\path\Lib\site-packages\tensorflow\models\research
your\Anaconda\environment\path\Lib\site-packages\tensorflow\models\research\slim
Then save and close. 

13. cd to tensorflow/models/research/

13. execute
python object_detection/builders/model_builder_test.py

Got error messages

ERROR: test_create_experimental_model (__main__.ModelBuilderTest)
test_create_experimental_model (__main__.ModelBuilderTest)

@stereomatchingkiss Please revisit this issue!

I'm in the same shoe as you are, I think this is related to the recent release of tensorflow 2, that does not have the contring in the API anymore

I you run pip install tensorflow==1.15 it will work

Hi @stereomatchingkiss. Did you solve this problem?

[Jonaor]

@kaanaykutkabakci I just solved this, (my install is using conda and tensorflow 1.15)
while searching for the EXPERIMENTAL_META_ARCH_BUILDER_MAP reference - it looked in the conda site-packages folder - solution was just to go to that folder and removing the object detection model from there.

hopes this will help :)

Sorry for my late reply , pip install tensorflow==1.15 works
