AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'states'

[sulgik]

Hi,

I followed the direction in readme of factorial, and got this error code.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pyhsmm/plugins/factorial/example.py", line 9, in
import models
File "/home/sulgik/pyhsmm/plugins/factorial/models.py", line 6, in
from internals.states import FactorialStates,
File "/home/sulgik/pyhsmm/plugins/factorial/internals/states.py", line 151, in
class FactorialComponentHSMMStates(pyhsmm.internals.states.HSMMStatesPython):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'states'

Can you give me any sort of clues that I can try for this?

I haven't touched the factorial code in a long time, and it only works with a specific commit of pyhsmm (specified in the readme). It looks like you might not be on that pyhsmm commit.

[mattjj]

Check these two things:

1. Start a python interpreter and type import pyhsmm; print pyhsmm.__file__
2. Check the pyhsmm commit by going to the directory printed in step 1 and doing git rev-parse --short HEAD

Thanks for the response. I got this message:

import pyhsmm; print pyhsmm.file
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'file'

[mattjj]

Sorry, I was typing on a phone and Github formatted the text funny. You need to check pyhsmm.__file__, which every Python module keeps as a reference to its corresponding .pyc filename.

Hi

I had a clue from a closed issue ( #3 ) and tried this

git checkout af79471
git clone -b working-factorial https://github.com/mattjj/pyhsmm.git
cd pyhsmm
git submodule update --init --recursive

Now, I have this message:

Sorry, disregard my last message (now deleted).

Oh yeah, I did delete my Eigen repository. I forgot it would cause problems here!

Just download Eigen and put it in deps (you may need to rename it to Eigen3 or something, but once you get the path right it should compile). This is progress!

Many thanks Matthew,

git clone -b working-factorial https://github.com/mattjj/pyhsmm.git
cd pyhsmm

Since util directory was empty, so I filled from https://github.com/mattjj/pymattutil/tree/ddf6383091cb55006c36edd33edf166ba3ddcf93.

git submodule update --init --recursive

Then, I filled dep/Eigen3 directory as Matthew directed.

git clone https://github.com/mattjj/pyhsmm-factorial.git ./plugins/factorial

Now, it seems to work. (At least no warning message)

[mattjj]

I'm glad you got it working and that you documented your fix! I'll leave this issue open until I can update the readme with better instructions. Thanks!

Hello, I followed the last guide of akkou but still got an error:

File "pyhsmm/internals/transitions.py", line 9, in
from ..basic.distributions import DirGamma

I am wondering where I can find the DirGamma.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Tam

This code likely needs an older version of pybasicbayes. You could try cloning the repo and checking out an old version based on the date when this pyhsmm-factorial code was last updated.

Unfortunately I'm not currently working on this code and I won't have the spare cycles to fix it in the near future. However, if you make progress, let us know here (or make a PR)!
