Description

I am getting this error after trying reinstalling apex and running my code :

FAISS library was not found.
FAISS not available. Switching to standard nearest neighbors search implementation.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "train.py", line 23, in
from xlm.trainer import SingleTrainer, EncDecTrainer
File "/data1/home/gealp/kedjoe/eXP/Flaubert/xlm/trainer.py", line 21, in
import apex
File "/home/gealp/keljoe/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/apex/init.py", line 6, in
from . import parallel
ImportError: cannot import name 'parallel' from 'apex' (/home/gealp/keldjoe/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/apex/init.py)

Research direction

Start with train.py line 23 and xlm/trainer.py line 21, then inspect the installed apex package referenced in the traceback. Reproduce the import failure after the reported reinstall and determine whether the environment can import apex.parallel; the issue is resolved when the training script proceeds without this ImportError.
