Failed to run Python script with Conda

Question

I tried to install menpo like in this tutorial. After that I installed menpofit, menpo3d and menpodetect:

conda install -c menpo menpofit

conda install -c menpo menpo3d

conda install -c menpo menpodetect

Next I ran this python script from CMD(python testPy.py):

import menpo.io as mio
from menpo.visualize import visualize_images

images = list(mio.import_images('A:/img/*.png'))
visualize_images(images)

And got this output: What am I doing wrong and how I can fix it?

Answer 1

It seems that visualize_images is meant to be used from ipython-notebook. Calling it in a regular python script does not seem to be intended by the authors.

See also the example in the Visualizing Objects section of the docs:

%matplotlib inline
import menpo.io as mio
from menpo.visualize import visualize_images

# import_images is a generator, so we must exhaust the generator before
# we can visualize the list. This is because the widget allows you to
# jump arbitrarily around the list, which cannot be done with generators.
images = list(mio.import_images('./path/to/images/*.jpg'))
visualize_images(images)
