Models: Documentation missing

Prerequisites

Please answer the following question for yourself before submitting an issue.

• [x] I checked to make sure that this issue has not been filed already.

1. https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/running_locally.md

2. https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/installation.md

2. Describe the issue

I have been trying to run the object detection api since the last week. And suddenly the documentation of installation along with a few others are gone. Is it related to the new update pertaining to Tensorflo 2.0 implementation ?

They reside here now: https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/tf1.md.

Above comment is for TF1. If you're looking for Tensorflow 2 you'll want this link:

https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/tf2.md

But all the colab tutorial now require installation of tensorflow=="2.*". What happened to TF1 colabs? I'm trying to set everything up and train a model in TF1 locally, but can't seem to find any jupyter notebooks that I can run to quickly make sure everything is set up properly (or follow along as a tutorial).

@khanx169 this might be useful although it is not a Colab: https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/g3doc/running_pets.md.

Installation instructions specific to TensorFlow 1 can be found here.

@sayakpaul thanks for the link. I did see that, unfortunately since it's specific to GCS it's hard (but hopefully not impossible) to parse out relevant parts for a local machine. Having a tutorial notebook specific to TF1 would save a lot of pain in the neck of basically doing the same translation repetitiously for every new TF1 user. Just a suggestion. Based on old youtube videos, it looks like there used to be such notebooks, but instead of maintaining them, they got upgraded to TF2 only.

[sayakpaul]

I can understand. See if this tutorial helps?
