AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'ndims', while using tensorflow eager execution mode

Question

I am using tf eager mode, and trying to create a GAN model. To made this, i created a class as follows. I tried sending array specificly, found in keras issues, but that also didn't worked?

class vanillaGAN(tf.keras.Model):
    """Vanilla GAN"""
    def __init__(self, noise_dims, input_dims):
        """Define all layer used in network"""
        super(vanillaGAN, self).__init__()
        self.disc1 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(128, activation='relu')
        self.disc2 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(1)#, activation='sigmoid')

        self.gen1 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(128, activation='relu')
        self.gen2 = tf.keras.layers.Dense(784)#, activation='sigmoid')

    def gen_forward(self, x):
        """Forward Pass for Generator"""
        x = self.gen1(x)
        x = self.gen2(x)
        return x

    def dis_forward(self, x):
        """Forward Pass for Discriminator"""
        x = self.disc1(x)
        x = self.disc2(x)
        return x

Now, on using following script:

def sample(batch_size, dims):
    return np.random.uniform(size=(batch_size, dims))

gan = vanillaGAN(noise_dims=40, input_dims=784)

noise = sample(32,40)
#gan.gen_forward(np.array(noise))
gan.gen_forward(noise)}

I am getting following error

----------------------------------------------------------------------

please, if someone can help.

What exactly happens if you use the commented line gan.gen_forward(np.array(noise)) instead? And also, what's the result of print(noise)? — GPhilo

Same error, infact this error is for that commented line , i forgot to change it. — Ankish Bansal

It is numpy array with desired shape. I guess error is somewhere in the class model. — Ankish Bansal

Note that the model input should be a tensor, so running a model would be like:

gan = vanillaGAN(noise_dims=40, input_dims=784)

noise = sample(32,40)

# define the tensors
noise_tensor = tf.placeholder(tf.float32, shape=[32,40])
gen_output = gan.gen_forward(noise_tensor)
dis_output = gan.dis_forward(noise_tensor)

# define the initializer
# Ref: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45139423/tensorflow-error-failedpeconditionerror-attempting-to-use-uninitialized-variab
init = tf.global_variables_initializer() 

# run the graph
with tf.Session() as sess:
    sess.run(init)

    gen_output = sess.run(gen_output, feed_dict = {noise_tensor:noise})
    dis_output = sess.run(dis_output, feed_dict = {noise_tensor:noise})

    print(gen_output.shape)
    print(dis_output.shape)

The error message is saying that numpy array doesn't have the attribute xxx.shape.ndims.

Experiment:

Access xxx.shape.ndims of a numpy array by noise.shape.ndims:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "", line 1, in noise.shape.ndims

AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'ndims'

Access xxx.shape.ndims of a tensor by noise_tensor.shape.ndims:
