I encountered a dependency conflict while installing the packages listed in the requirements.txt.

I am using Python 3.10 on an Ubuntu Linux system, and during installation, pip reported the following conflict:

matplotlib==3.8.3 requires numpy<2.
imageio==2.34.0 also depends on numpy.
However, requirements.txt specifies numpy==2.2.1, which is incompatible with these dependencies.

Would it be possible to relax the version constraint for numpy (e.g., changing it to numpy>=1.21,<2)?
Is there a recommended combination of dependency versions to resolve this issue?
Have you encountered this problem before, and are there any workarounds you suggest?

Thank you for your time and assistance!
