###protoc compilations


for /f %i in ('dir /b object_detection\protos\*.proto') do C:\Users\GELab\Documents\Development\SmartTableObjClassification\protoc-3.7.1-win32\bin\protoc object_detection\protos\%i --python_out=.



###Cause of this error is installing object_detection library, So one of the solution which can work is running the below command inside models/research

python setup.py install


### create an environmnet and install tensorflow with pip and not anaconda



##### run spyder in specific environment####
activate myenv
(myenv) conda install spyder   

### install jupyter notebook kernel for specific environment
conda install jupyter
## and then register the kernel
python -m ipykernel install --user --name object_detection(your env) --display-name "Python (object_detection)"

###check gpu version of tensorflow in python

import tensorflow as tf
if tf.test.gpu_device_name():
    print('Default GPU Device: {}'.format(tf.test.gpu_device_name()))
else:
    print("Please install GPU version of TF")
	

##command for installation of tf_gpu

pip install --ignore-installed --upgrade tensorflow-gpu


### needed packages

conda install pillow, lxml, jupyter, matplotlib, opencv
