Dropout layer error in transfer_glove_embeddings.py

[ulisesvid]

Hi all!

I am trying to replicate the model of transfer_glove_embeddings.py. When I try to execute the model I gel the following error:

`---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError Traceback (most recent call last)

9 trainable=True))
---> 10 model.add(SpatialDropout1D(Dropout(0.2)))

12 activation="relu"))

TypeError: '>' not supported between instances of 'Dropout' and 'float'`

Any ideas? thanks in advanced

Just had to remove argument Drop():
model.add(SpatialDropout1D(0.2)) instead of model.add(SpatialDropout1D(Dropout(0.2)))

Thanks Ulises. I ran into the same problem. Indeed it says in the documentation that SpatialDropout1D only takes a rate as argument.

Thank you! That was driving me mad!
