I am trying to perform a selective search to an image using OpenCV but when I run my code I get this:
>>> import cv2
>>> ss = cv2.ximgproc.segmentation.createSelectiveSearchSegmentation()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'cv2.cv2' has no attribute 'ximgproc'
I've seen similar problems but people solved them installing opencv-contrib-python package. I've already installed this module but the problem persists.
Here is my requirements file:
opencv-contrib-python==4.1.0.25
opencv-python==4.1.0.25
I am using a conda environment with python 3.7
As mentioned in the OpenCV pypi web page:
If you have previous version of OpenCV installed remove it before installation to avoid conflicts.
There are 4 different opencv packages: opencv-python, opencv-contrib-python, opencv-python-headless, opencv-contrib-python-headless.
You can only install one. Multiple opencv packages are incompatible.
When asking my question, I had 2 opencv packages. Therefore I first removed the two existing packages:
$ pip uninstall opencv-contrib-python opencv-python
And then, I installed only one package:
$ pip install opencv-contrib-python
Finally, the installation worked.

This should solve the issue, if you have pip installed. I found pip installer to be better than conda installer in general.
pip install opencv-contrib-python
