Tensorflow: 'module' object has no attribute 'FixedLenFeature'

Question

I was running through Google's Tensorflow's fully_connected_reader.py example (I have executed convert_to_record.py, and source code is here:

https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/tree/master/tensorflow/examples/how_tos/reading_data):

python fully_connected_reader.py

  File "fully_connected_reader.py", line 62, in read_and_decode
    'image_raw': tf.FixedLenFeature([], tf.string),
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'FixedLenFeature'

Anyone got any idea? (it is running from the latest github version).

Answer 1

If you are using TensorFlow 2.x, FixedLenFeature has moved from tf.FixedLenFeature into tf.io.FixedLenFeature.

The use of tf.FixedLenFeature was marked as deprecated in previous versions.
