It sounds like an installation issue. Please try to uninstall and reinstall Keras:
It does not sort out my issue
It works for me! I have been trying others methods
STEP 1: CREATING NEW ENVIRONMENT #open anaconda command prompt *type these commands:
a. conda create -n EnvironmentName python=3.5 anaconda Example (base) C:\Users\Asus>conda create -n py35 python=3.5 anaconda b. Activate EnvironmentName : type command: activate py35 Example (base) C:\Users\Asus>activate py35
STEP 2: INSTALL SPYDER ON NEW ENVIRONMENT #open anaconda command prompt *type this command: conda install spyder Example (py35) C:\Users\Asus>activate py35
STEP 3: INSTALL THEANO TO NEW ENVIRONMENT OF ANACONDA NEGIVATOR #open anaconda command prompt *type this command: conda install theano Example (py35) C:\Users\Asus>conda install theano
STEP 4:INSTALL TENSORFLOW TO NEW ENVIRONMENT OF ANACONDA NEGIVATOR #open anaconda command prompt *type this command: conda install tensorflow Example (py35) C:\Users\Asus>conda install tensorflow
STEP 5: GET TENSORFLOW FOR *GPU NOT for *CPU (not a complete step) #open anaconda command prompt *install latest pip if not latest *type this command: python -m pip install --upgrade pip
STEP 6: INSTALL KERAS *type command : conda install -c conda-forge keras Example (py35) C:\Users\Asus>conda install -c conda-forge keras
NOW IT SHOULD WORK Gives warning due to incomplete 5th step GIVES SOME WARNING BUT WORKS GOOD>>>>>>>>>
Same Issue.
Tensorflow : Version: 2.3.1 Keras : 2.4.3
Same issue AttributeError: module ‘keras.backend’ has no attribute ‘tensorflow_backend’
tensorflow 2.3.1 keras, 2.4.3
Same issue AttributeError: module ‘keras.backend’ has no attribute ‘tensorflow_backend’
tensorflow 2.3.1 keras, 2.4.3
Thanks a lot. That’s truly helped!
I also occured the same thing , you can try this:
from tensorflow.keras import backend from keras import backend as K
IT WORKED FOR ME🎉
This issue seems to appear when installing keras (pip install keras) on the Spyder console. When installed on conda prompt, it worked for me.
Worked for me too. Thanks
It works for me, thank you so much!
