AttributeError: module 'tensorflow' has no attribute 'get_default_graph'

Question

I am doing some task related to image captioning and I have loaded the weights of inception model like this

model = InceptionV3(weights='imagenet')

But I am getting error like this:

AttributeError: module 'tensorflow' has no attribute 'get_default_graph'

What should I do? Please help. Here is the full output of above code.

Solution 1

Change

Import keras.<something>.<something>

to

Import tensorflow.keras.<something>.<something>

where "something" refers to the module you want to import. It worked for me.

Solution 2

Another cause due to which this is happening is that in tensorflow_backend.py

located in : lib/python3.6/site-packages/keras/backend/

uses tf.compat.v1.get_default_graph for obtaining graph

instead of tf.get_default_graph.

By replacing this in the directory this problem can be solved successfully.

Solution 3

Keras integrated into TensorFlow 2.0

The article below cleared this up for me. Key points are:

1. Keras is included in the TensorFlow 2.0 package
2. So no need to install the stand-alone Keras package in your environment
3. And now the fore-mentioned solutions of using "from tensorflow.keras…" make sense.

After recognizing that and making the change, my code samples work with some minor changes here and there. https://www.pyimagesearch.com/2019/10/21/keras-vs-tf-keras-whats-the-difference-in-tensorflow-2-0/

Solution 4

I fixed this problem by replacing tensorflow.keras.* to tensorflow.python.keras.*

Working example:

from tensorflow.python.keras.models import Sequential
