Cannot see the result whie using Object detection code using tensorflow

Question

I am using an open code for object detection using tensorflow available from GitHub. I was able to run the code without any errors.

However, I wasn't able to see any images after finishing running the code. Usually, once the code is run, the test images will be shown with a bounding box around the detected image along with the name of the detected object. I am not even getting the images at the end. But I can see the test images in the folder. Please help me. I am new to python and testing the code out.

Any help would be appreciated. This is my Image result

Answer 1

The same happened to me, too. After some research I found the answer on a GitHub site, https://github.com/tensorflow/models/issues/6684, that advised it has to do with Matplotlib versions. I commented out two lines in the visualization_util

Commenting out these two lines in utils\visualization_utils.py:

#import matplotlib; matplotlib.use('Agg') # pylint: disable=multiple-statements
#import matplotlib.pyplot as plt # pylint: disable=g-import-not-at-top

Answer 2

same thing happened me i prefer use cv2 for images can you place this code to research/object_detection path as detect_object.py

file must placed here: model-master/research/object_detection/detect_object.py

sys.path.append("..")

if StrictVersion(tf.__version__) < StrictVersion('1.9.0'):
  raise ImportError('Please upgrade your TensorFlow installation to v1.9.* or later!')
