Import error with tensorflow r1.8

[xiangze]

tensorflow r1.8 does not seem to have "set_shapes_for_outputs" and an error occurs when importing edward.

from tensorflow.python.framework.ops import set_shapes_for_outputs in edward/edward/util/random_variables.py https://github.com/blei-lab/edward/blob/master/edward/util/random_variables.py#L15

Just comment out "from tensorflow.python.framework.ops import set_shapes_for_outputs" and following lines does not work. https://github.com/blei-lab/edward/blob/master/edward/util/random_variables.py#L404

How to be implemented this function without set_shapes_for_outputs?

[IanQS]

#891 and #882

The set_shapes_for_outputs function seems to have been deprecated as of 1.7

[larsr]

This is related to issue 882.

I replaced the import line edward/util/random_variables.py#L15 with

from tensorflow.python.framework.ops import set_shape_and_handle_data_for_outputs as set_shapes_for_outputs

as it seems like the function has been renamed here. Not sure if it is necessary to use it, but at least this quickfix makes it possible to use tensorflow 1.8 (I haven't run many tests, just got it to work)

Why has this not been turned into a pull request?

I am new to TF and Edward. I conda/pip installed TF and Edward according the "Get Started" recommendations. Then I ran Jupyter and got this same error:

I am having the same issue too. I am running on Python 2.7.12, tensorflow 1.8.0, and I just installed edward 1.14.3. I am running on mac OS X 10.13.4. I type

python -c "import edward"

And then I got the following message:

With lars's solution, the Bayesian Linear regression example gives an error.

reconstruct_sequence_inputs(self, op_def, inputs, attrs) 1801 grouped_inputs.append(inputs[i:i + input_len]) 1802 else: -> 1803 grouped_inputs.append(inputs[i]) 1804 i += input_len

[image357]

I got the same error.

Tensorflow: 1.11.0 Edward: 1.3.5

[qw924]

I got the same issue.

edward-1.3.5 tensorflow-1.11.0

[VoroninDA]

tf version 1.12.0 edward version 1.3.5

Getting the same issue.

quick fix was to use pipenv install 'tensorflow<=1.7.*'

[oduerr]

Is there any other quick fix not requiring to downgrade TF? Background: I want to use it with colab notebooks.

I guess you currently should use tensorflow-probability, which contains edward2.

[ginward]

Same error. Solved by downgrading tensorflow to 1.7.0. pip install 'tensorflow==1.7.0' --force-reinstall
