ImportError during testing pre-trained model with test_panoptic.py, possibly a circular import?

[tymwitko]

I've been trying to run the test_panoptic.py inference test on the pre-trained model available through the README. I've tried renaming the backend files to check whether it could be a naming issue, but nothing changed.

Traceback (most recent call last):
