Error with guppy using a new model trained with taiyaki

[jlaroche]

I trained a new model with taiyaki and export it with dump_json.py I try to use it with guppy with this cmd:

guppy_basecaller -i subset_validation_single_fast5 -s subset_validation_basecall_new -c /prg/guppy/4.4.1/data/dna_r9.4.1_450bps_hac.cfg -m model_laval1.json --device cuda:0

I got this in the log file:

I have the same problem. Trained with RNA samples. Is there any solution? Basecalling on CPU is time-consuming...

Hello. I'm afraid Guppy only supports a limited number of layer types and sizes and, unfortunately, a size 384 GRU layer is not one of them (the error you are seeing). Size 256 GRU or size size 384 LSTM layers are supported.

Alternatively you could try the basecaller.py script from Taiyaki -- it is generally much slower than Guppy but does support all layers on the GPU. Depending on GPU memory available, increasing the --jobs flag can considerably improve performance.
