No object named 'Meccano' found in 'DATASET' registry

[aranciokov]

Hi, thanks for releasing this interesting project. I'm trying to work on the action recognition task. So far, I have done the following:

• installed PySlowFast following the official repo (PYTHONPATH contains the link to the slowfast folder)
• slowfast/datasets contains init.py, meccano.py and sampling.py; whereas slowfast/models contains custom_video_model_builder_MECCANO_gaze.py and init.py
• I downloaded videos, rgb frames, and temporal annotations into a folder called 'data', which is located on the same level of slowfast (i.e., from the slowfast folder I can list the contents of data by 'ls ../data'); the folder 'data' contains a folder Meccano, which contains the folders MECCANO_RGB_Videos and RGB_frames, and three files: MECCANO_train_actions.csv, MECCANO_test_actions.csv, MECCANO_val_actions.csv
• in the config file located at ../configs/action_recognition/SLOWFAST_8x8_R50_MECCANO.yaml I set the PATH_TO_DATA_DIR to ../data

Now, to the problem. When I execute "python tools/run_net.py --cfg ../configs/action_recognition/SLOWFAST_8x8_R50_MECCANO.yaml" I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/media/HDD/alexfalcon/MECCANO/env_meccano/lib/python3.8/site-packages/torch/multiprocessing/spawn.py", line 69, in _wrap fn(i, *args) File "/media/HDD/alexfalcon/MECCANO/slowfast/slowfast/utils/multiprocessing.py", line 60, in run ret = func(cfg) File "/media/HDD/alexfalcon/MECCANO/slowfast/tools/train_net.py", line 596, in train train_loader = loader.construct_loader(cfg, "train") File "/media/HDD/alexfalcon/MECCANO/slowfast/slowfast/datasets/loader.py", line 114, in construct_loader dataset = build_dataset(dataset_name, cfg, split) File "/media/HDD/alexfalcon/MECCANO/slowfast/slowfast/datasets/build.py", line 31, in build_dataset return DATASET_REGISTRY.get(name)(cfg, split) File "/media/HDD/alexfalcon/MECCANO/env_meccano/lib/python3.8/site-packages/fvcore/common/registry.py", line 71, in get raise KeyError( KeyError: "No object named 'Meccano' found in 'DATASET' registry!"

Unfortunately, I can't seem to figure out the cause of this issue. Any idea? Thanks and cheers, Alex

Hi @aranciokov, thank you for your interest about our work!

It seems strange that the error that you described occurs. To avoid that error, it is fundamental to replace the __init__.py file in the "slowfast/datasets/" folder where the Meccano class is imported:

from .meccano import Meccano #added

Can you check that in your /slowfast/datasets/__init__.py file there is that "import"?
