title: from utils import label_map_util Import Error: No module named utils
body: <p>I am trying to run the <code>object_detection.ipynb</code> type program but it is a normal python program(.py). It is working very well but when running inside the <code>..models/research/object_detection</code> folder, but the main issue is when I am trying to run this code in another directory with proper <code>sys.append</code>, I am ending up with the following error:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Traceback (most recent call last):</p>
  <p>File &quot;obj_detect.py&quot;, line 20, in </p>
  <pre><code>from utils import label_map_util
  </code></pre>
  <p>ImportError: No module named utils</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>If I trying to import the file from <code>..models/research/object_detection</code> folder into a python program in a different directory, then I end up with more errors as follows:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Traceback (most recent call last):</p>

  <p>How to solve this issue?</p>
