While running demo.ipynb i get the below error:

Tensorflow version = 1.15.0

AttributeError Traceback (most recent call last) in 3 4 # Load weights trained on MS-COCO ----> 5 model.load_weights(COCO_MODEL_PATH, by_name=True)

How can I fix this issue ?

Are you using tensorflow-gpu? What keras version are you using?

[Chethan187]

I'm not using tensorflow-gpu version.

Below are the current versions: Tensorflow: 1.14.0 Keras: 2.1.6
