Conflict between Numpy 1.19 and Keras

[theheking]

I am currently using tensorflow==2.2 and keras==2.4.3 with Janggu in conda environment supplied below. My environment runs smoothly until I apply a Bidirectional LSTM keras layer. This outputs a an error NotImplementedError: Cannot convert a symbolic Tensor (bidirectional/forward_lstm/strided_slice:0) to a numpy array.

I then downgrade my numpy installation from 1.21 to 1.19.5 which then results in conflicts with keras. The error that results is: ValueError: validation_split is only supported for Tensors or NumPy arrays, found: ([Bioseq("dna"), ReduceDim(Cover('rna')), ReduceDim(Cover('H3K4me3'))], ReduceDim(Cover('cage')), None)

Do you have any recommendations on how to resolve these issues. I cannot utilise tensorflow==1.14 and keras==2.2 due to hpc limitations.

Thank you so much!!
