Inference using saved model in Tensorflow 2: how to control in/output?

Viewed 1237

Adapting my code from TF1 to TF2.6 I run into trouble. I am trying to add some custom layers to an inception resnet, save the model, and then load and run it.

from tensorflow.keras.layers import Dense

Error: KeyError: "The name 'output/Softmax:0' refers to a Tensor which does not exist. The operation, 'output/Softmax', does not exist in the graph."

What I don't understand: predictions.name is 'output/Softmax:0', but graph.get_tensor_by_name('output/Softmax:0') tells me it does not exist!

Note: I am aware that I can save and load with TF2's tf.keras.models.save and tf.keras.models.load_model and then run the model with model(x). However, in my application I have multiple models in memory and I have found that the inference takes much longer than in my TF1 code using the session object. I would therefore like to use the TF1 approach with the session object in compatibility mode.

How can I control the names of input/output when saving? What am I missing?

Tested on TF 2.0, 2.6, and 2.7:

If you haven't already, you could try something like the following, as I believe you are referencing the wrong keys in SignatureDef:

You could also take a look at the SignatureDef for input and output information:

print(meta_graph.signature_def)

  key: "input_2"
  value {
    name: "serving_default_input_2:0"

    }
  }
}
outputs {

  value {
    name: "StatefulPartitionedCall:0"
    dtype: DT_FLOAT
    tensor_shape {
      dim {

      }

}
}

If you remove the first layer of your base_model and add a new Input layer, you can use static key names sig_def.inputs['input'].name and sig_def.outputs['output'].name:

Note that changing the name of the first layer of base_model does not work with the syntax model.layers[0]._name = 'input' because the model configuration itself will not be updated.
