Cannot import tensorflow_probability

When I try to import tensorflow_probability, I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "PATH", line 1, in <module>
    import tensorflow_probability
  File "PATH", line 75, in <module>
    from tensorflow_probability.python import *  # pylint: disable=wildcard-import
  File "PATH", line 24, in <module>
    from tensorflow_probability.python import edward2
  File "PATH", line 32, in <module>
    from tensorflow_probability.python.experimental.edward2.generated_random_variables import *
  File "PATH", line 34, in <module>
    from tensorflow_probability.python.experimental import auto_batching
  File "PATH", line 24, in <module>
    from tensorflow_probability.python.experimental.auto_batching import frontend
  File "PATH", line 46, in <module>
    from tensorflow.python.autograph.pyct import compiler
ImportError: cannot import name 'compiler' from 'tensorflow.python.autograph.pyct' (PATH)

I don't know why Python can't import this module because when I type pip list in cmd, it tells me that I have tensorflow-probability 0.8.0rc0 installed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try to install the tf_agents package. I had a few import errors appear when trying to import tensorflow_probability. These include:

  • module 'tensorflow.python.ops.linalg.linear_operator' has no attribute 'make_composite_tensor'
  • cannot import name 'all_util' from 'tensorflow_probability.python.internal'.

These issues were resolved when I installed and imported tf_agents.

pip install --upgrade tf_agents

If you're using jupyter, add the following to a cell and then run it:

import sys
!{sys.executable} -m pip install --upgrade tf_agents

Had the exact same problem. Removing older tensorflow version and installing everything nightly solved my problem.

pip uninstall tensorflow
pip uninstall tensorflow-probability

pip install tf-nightly
pip install tfp-nightly

I have tried to import in Google colab and Ubuntu 18 version. In colab it worked directly, in ubuntu I faced issues.
Upgrading to the latest pip and TensorFlow version resolved my issue.

Colab:

import tensorflow_probability as tfp

Ubuntu 18:

Upgrade pip

pip install --upgrade pip

install the latest version of TensorFlow

pip install tensorflow

install tensorflow_probability

pip install --upgrade tensorflow-probability

tensorflow-probability version 0.11.1
