Issue with siamese_track( )

[MsAnitaAli]

whenever I clone and use this repo in my notebook. It generates error with this line

state = siamese_track(state, frame, mask_enable=True, refine_enable=True, device=device)

error message is:
AttributeError: module 'numpy' has no attribute 'float'.
np.float was a deprecated alias for the builtin float. To avoid this error in existing code, use float by itself. Doing this will not modify any behavior and is safe. If you specifically wanted the numpy scalar type, use np.float64 here.
The aliases was originally deprecated in NumPy 1.20; for more details and guidance see the original release note at:
https://numpy.org/devdocs/release/1.20.0-notes.html#deprecations

Apparently it seems, I am using newer version of numpy and use of np.float has been deprecated. I have tried out these.

1. I have tried to rerun (on my local machine) with older version of numpy from my activated virtual env, but no use.
2. In Google colab, i have tried to forcefully pip install older version of numpy, it didn't work too.
3. I tried to replace all occurrences of np.float with float, but didn't work.
4. i tried to replace all occurrences of np.float64, but it didn't work too.
   Now what to do?

Secondly, in some codes( as in this code), apparently there is no np.float present in our code. It might be possible that definition of siamese_track is using it, but how to locate that definition in entire repo? or should I search for it in all possible .py and .ipnb files that are present in this repo, but how is that possible

My code cell is given below.
steps:
1: Mount drive - running
2: Setting up imports, Clone and Install Darknet (Yolov4) and SiamMask, copying weights - running

3: Detect the object using Yolov4 and track it using SiamMask; -- generating error

def YoloSiam():
f = 0
video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture()
if video_capture.open('target.mp4'):
width, height = int(video_capture.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_WIDTH)), int(video_capture.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FRAME_HEIGHT))
fps = video_capture.get(cv2.CAP_PROP_FPS)

!rm -f output.mp4 output.avi
# can't write out mp4, so try to write into an AVI file
video_writer = cv2.VideoWriter("output.avi", cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'MJPG'), fps, (width, height))

while video_capture.isOpened():
  ret, frame = video_capture.read()
  if not ret:
    break

    cv2.polylines(frame, [np.int0(location).reshape((-1, 1, 2))], True, (0, 255, 0), 3)

  # only on first 200 frames

I am also facing the same issue. Has anyone got any solution?
