As shown above the image isn’t loaded. Looking around I saw:

There is no folder called images. Moreover, there is no such folder auto-copied to Google Drive either, so either something is missing in the setup script or there are some “data procuring” rules I haven’t read. I’m not sure if there is any data being added on the colab machine.

Note: This issue has been raised before, sometimes articulately, sometimes not, but has not been resolved in whatever I searched through the forums

Hi aryanagal hope all is well!

I have looked at your notebook, and it appears that you will need to copy the images directory in the notebook repository to your content drive in Colab.

Hi aryanagal.
Here is one of many solutions.

1. Run the following in the notebook.

folder = ‘notebook_tutorial’
path = Path(’/content/images/’)
dest = path/folder
dest.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)

2. Drag and drop the files from your desktop to the notebook_tutorial directory.
