Hi, 

I would like help to convert my TF model into IR Format.

now if I use the mo_tf.py script with specifying the output node parameter to convert my model, I get the following error:

Can anyone help me with the conversion of my model to IR format? 

Thank you,

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out. It's unclear what the problem could be without many details of the model and commands used to convert. If you can please share more information about your model, is it an object/classification model, if custom model what type of layers does the model use, command given to the Model Optimizer to convert model. If possible to share model files for us to replicate and find possible mistake (files can be shared via Private Message).

Also any details about your environment are welcome (for example OS, versions of Python, TF, CMake, etc.).
 

Regards,

Luis

Hello,

This is a Text Recognition Model. 

command given to the Model Optimizer to convert model :

python3 python3 /opt/intel/openvino/deployment_tools/model_optimizer/mo_tf.py --input_model frozen_model/LPRecog_model_updated_mxpl_mul_64_hvshear_channels_last.pb --input_shape [1,128,256,3] --input=input_placeholder --output=output_nodes/CTCBeamSearchDecoder --log_level=DEBUG

Environment Details are as below:

OS: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Version of python: Python 3.5.2

TF Version: 1.14.0

cmake version 3.16.2

Hi,

I have the same problem with converting model from TF to IR with CTCBeamSearchDecoder openvino-2021.2. 

Could you help me with this problem?

[ ERROR ]  Cannot infer shapes or values for node "CTCGreedyDecoder".
[ ERROR ]  Incorrect rank of sequence length tensor for CTCGreedyDecoder node
[ ERROR ]  
[ ERROR ]  It can happen due to bug in custom shape infer function <function CTCGreedyDecoderOp.infer at 0x7f993aa49488>.
[ ERROR ]  Or because the node inputs have incorrect values/shapes.
[ ERROR ]  Or because input shapes are incorrect (embedded to the model or passed via --input_shape).
[ ERROR ]  Run Model Optimizer with --log_level=DEBUG for more information.
[ ERROR ]  Exception occurred during running replacer "REPLACEMENT_ID" (<class 'extensions.middle.PartialInfer.PartialInfer'>): Stopped shape/value propagation at "CTCGreedyDecoder" node.
