"NameError: name 'torch' is not defined" but torch is installed and imported

[giulianoformisano]

After creating a virtual environment, I tried to install and import m3inference:

pip install m3inference import m3inference

But I get the following error, how could I fix it?

NameError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)

I tried to install and import torch before doing the same with m3inference.

Thanks!

Can you please follow these directions to install pytorch https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/ ?

If it still does not work, please provide the specific versions of packages you have installed using pip freeze

[zijwang]

@giulianoformisano could you try to verify whether you installed torch correctly? You could try import torch in Python console inside your virtualenv.

Everything was working fine earlier this year. When I tried running the script this time around, I encountered the same problem as @giulianoformisano. Some context: I work with an M1 mac and torch seems to be working just fine for me.

NameError: name 'torch' is not defined

I tried to fix it by adding import torch, torchvision in the downloaded scripts. I've also run the following command, to update pytorch:

conda install pytorch torchvision torchaudio -c pytorch-nightly

After that, I added map_location=torch.device('mps') as an argument wherever there is torch.load(...) in the scripts, specifically in the m3inference.py file. MPS was selected because of a recent update. I tried "cpu" but it didn't work.

Anyway, running the program with the above adjustments partially fixed the problem. Now, I am stuck again with a segmentation error.

I use this package heavily (and cite it whenever I can). It would be a shame for it not to work in future projects. :(

Update:

I switched environments (switched to pytorch-nightly) using conda activate torch-nightly, and made the same modifications as detailed above, and it worked?

Interesting. Thanks @wdwgonzales . It sounds like the segmentation fault from #26 is solved by using the latest (nightly) build and adding map_location=torch.device('mps') as an argument wherever there is torch.load(...). That is probably something we can do automatically if we detect the computer has an M1/arm64 architecture.

What computer architecture and OS are you using @giulianoformisano ? Also what version of Python?

[giulianoformisano]

Thanks a lot for your inputs! I followed @wdwgonzales, but the procedure didn't fix the issue.

I am currently using an M2, python versions 3.9.6 and 3.8.8. I also tried the same procedure on Windows Server 2012, yet getting the same error.

[MuraliRamRavipati]

downgrading torch to 1.12.1 and torchvision to 0.13.1 worked for me

[giulianoformisano]

@MuraliRamRavipati thank you so much! Downgrading torch to 1.12.1 and torchvision to 0.13.1 fixed the issue.

I created a new environment (python 3.8.8) and followed MuraliRamRavipati's suggestion.
