Attempted relative import with no known parent package

[kaizhuanren]

When I run this demo.ipynb, I encounter the following import error. Theoretically, Python should be able to successfully import from the current directory using ..utils.easydict. Can you explain why this is happening?
ImportError Traceback (most recent call last)
Cell In[1], line 8
4 import cv2
6 import torch
----> 8 from config import (Config,
9 eval_dict_leaf)
11 from utils import (retrieve_text,
12 _frame_from_video,
13 setup_internvideo2)

File InternVideo-main/InternVideo2/multi_modality/demo/config.py:17
13 from importlib import import_module
15 import yaml
---> 17 from ..utils.easydict import EasyDict
19 all = ["Config", "pretty_text"]
22 BASE_KEY = "base"

ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package

Perhaps the following can be helpful to you:

Method1:
Create a Package: The most straightforward solution is to structure your project as a package:

 InternVideo-main/InternVideo2/multi_modality/
    ├── __init__.py
    ├── utils/
    │   └── easydict.py
    |...

__init__.py: This empty file signals to Python that the my_project directory is a package.

Method2:
Absolute Imports: If you don't want to create a package structure, use absolute imports:

from  InternVideo-main.InternVideo2.multi_modality.utils.easydict import EasyDict

This assumes your my_project directory is on your Python path (either in your PYTHONPATH environment variable or in a location Python searches by default).
