Prerequisites

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

• [+] I am using the latest TensorFlow Model Garden release and TensorFlow 2.
• [+] I am reporting the issue to the correct repository. (Model Garden official or research directory)
• [+] I checked to make sure that this issue has not already been filed.

1. The entire URL of the file you are using

https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/object_detection/colab_tutorials/inference_tf2_colab.ipynb

2. Describe the bug

NotFoundError: models/research/object_detection/configs/tf2/centernet_hg104_512x512_kpts_coco17_tpu-32.config; No such file or directory when trying to execute the above mentioned notebook with Google Colab

3. Steps to reproduce

Run the above mentioned notebook in Google Colab.

4. Expected behavior

Configuration should be found and loaded in.

5. Additional context

The problem results from the following line:

pipeline_config = os.path.join('models/research/object_detection/configs/tf2/', model_name + '.config')

where model_name is either centernet_hg104_512x512_kpts_coco17_tpu-32 or centernet_hg104_512x512_coco17_tpu-8.

There are no files with that name inside the config/tf2 folder, but there are two other config files center_net_hourglass104_1024x1024_coco17_tpu-32.config and center_net_hourglass104_512x512_coco17_tpu-8.config, which work for the model but they don't have a labelmap defined. Therefore the labelmap can't be loaded by saying configs['eval_input_config'].label_map_path. Rather the path must be manually specified.

6. System information

Google Colab

Anyone fix this problem yet? I'm new and have no way to run the tutorial, I have no idea what to put in the PATH_TO_BE_CONFIGURED in the config file for hourglass, and the hg file is nowhere to be found

[Damcy]

I have the same problem.

[MteaHubHug]

I also have this problem. Did you find the solution?

It seems like the notebook still hasn't been updated. To make it work replace:

pipeline_config = os.path.join('models/research/object_detection/configs/tf2/', model_name + '.config')

with

pipeline_config = 'models/research/object_detection/configs/tf2/centernet_hourglass104_512x512_coco17_tpu-8.config'

You then also need to specify the label_map_path by hand.

For anyone else wondering what to set label_map_path to, it seems like the following works:

label_map_path = 'models/research/object_detection/data/mscoco_label_map.pbtxt'
