BilateralFilter importing error

[saruarlive]

Hi, @Nic-Ma et al,
How can I use the bilateral filter as it is not imporing? Could you kindly look into that?

[Nic-Ma]

Hi @saruarlive ,

Thanks for your interest here.
BilateralFilter was added after MONAI v0.4 release, so you want to use it, please update to use master branch code directly.

Thanks.

@saruarlive check this comment for info on getting master branch: #1409 (comment).

@saruarlive this an experimental feature currently not enabled by default, please install monai with BUILD_MONAI=1 flag: BUILD_MONAI=1 pip install git+https://github.com/Project-MONAI/MONAI#egg=MONAI https://docs.monai.io/en/latest/installation.html#option-2-editable-installation

also many thanks for reporting the issues, next time please post it in the discussion section: https://github.com/Project-MONAI/MONAI/discussions as this is a usage question. Posting some logs in plain text is better than the screenshots, as the screenshots are not searchable

It might be good to also mention the

BUILD_MONAI=1 pip install git+https://github.com/Project-MONAI/MONAI#egg=MONAI

option in the root README:

Or alternatively remove all installation instructions from the README, leaving just the link to https://docs.monai.io/en/latest/installation.html? Would save us from keeping the two in sync with each other.
