ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'utils'

I'm trying to run the object_detection API in Tensorflow using my webcam as an input.

The error says: "from utils import label_map_util ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'utils'"

Which relates to the lines: 

from utils import label_map_util
from utils import visualization_utils as vis_util

I've tried "pip install util" appears to work but doesn't solve the problem. I have also reinstalled multiple versions of protobuf as other questions online appear to have this as the solution. I don't get any errors when I install protoc so I don't think this is the issue.

I'm using python 3.6 on windows 10 with tensorflow-gpu.

the installation didn't go through, you will notice no module called model_utils in your project folder. uninstall it pip uninstall django-model-utils then install it again pip install django-model-utils a new app called model_utils in your project folder.

I used a quicker method to fix it.

I copied the utils folder from models\research\object_detection and pasted it within the same directory as the python file which required utils

add object_detection to the front of utils:

# from utils import label_map_util
# from utils import visualization_utils as vis_util

from object_detection.utils import label_map_util
from object_detection.utils import visualization_utils as vis_util

  • Instead of running script inside object detection folder append the path of tensorflow object detection in your script by writing 

    import sys

sys.path.append('PATH_TO_TENSORFLOW_OBJECT_DETECTION_FOLDER')

  • e.g 'PATH_TO_TENSORFLOW_OBJECT_DETECTION_FOLDER' in my ubuntu system is

    /home/dc-335/Documents/Softwares/tensorflow/models/research/object_detection

  • Cheers, You done it !!

What folder are you running your python script from?

To be able to access the 'utils' module directly, you need to be running the script inside the <models-master>\research\object_detection folder.
