TypeError: add_weight() got multiple values for argument 'name'

Hi I have this error and I am not sure why:

2019-11-10 19:28:49.105252: I tensorflow/core/platform/cpu_feature_guard.cc:142] Your CPU supports instructions that this TensorFlow binary was not compiled to use: AVX2 FMA

System information

• OS: Scientific Linux 7.2
• TensorFlow backend (yes / no): Not sure
• TensorFlow version: 2.0
• Keras version: 2.3.1
• Python version: 3.5.2

To reproduce this behavior
You can clone my github repo and go to the deepcut/deepcut directory. Then you can run this in python interpreter:

>>> import train
>>> train.train_model("cleaned_data", "../weight/model_crf_weight.h5")

Thank you so much for your help!

I am also getting the same error. Please help us in this.

Thank you

Please go to https://github.com/wanitchayap/deepcut/blob/master/deepcut/layers.py and find the above snippet. In add_weight() function name the first arguments as 'shape' like:

self.kernel = self.add_weight(shape=(self.input_dim, self.units),
name='kernel',
initializer=self.kernel_initializer,
regularizer=self.kernel_regularizer,
constraint=self.kernel_constraint)

Do this in all your add_weight functions. Most likely you will get rid of this error. This has worked for me.

Thank you,
Deepak Singh
