Keras replacing input layer

Question

The code that I have (that I can\'t change) uses the Resnet with my_input_tensor as the input_tensor.

model1 = keras.applications.resnet50.ResNe         


        

Answer 1

The solution from @MilindDeore did not work for me, unfortunately. While I can print the summary of the new model, I receive a "Matrix size incompatible" error upon prediction. I guess this makes sense, since the new input shape of the dense layer does not match the shape of the old dense layer weights.

Thus, here is another solution. The key for me was to use "_layers" instead of "layers". The latter only seems to return a copy.

import keras
import numpy as np

def get_model():
    old_input_shape = (20, 20, 3)
    model = keras.models.Sequential()
    model.add(keras.layers.Conv2D(9, (3, 3), padding="same", input_shape=old_input_shape))
    model.add(keras.layers.MaxPooling2D((2, 2)))
    model.add(keras.layers.Flatten())
    model.add(keras.layers.Dense(1, activation="sigmoid"))
    model.compile(loss='binary_crossentropy', optimizer=keras.optimizers.Adam(lr=0.0001), metrics=['acc'], )
    model.summary()
    return model

def change_model(model, new_input_shape=(None, 40, 40, 3)):
    # replace input shape of first layer
    model._layers[1].batch_input_shape = new_input_shape

    # feel free to modify additional parameters of other layers, for example...
    model._layers[2].pool_size = (8, 8)
    model._layers[2].strides = (8, 8)

    # rebuild model architecture by exporting and importing via json
    new_model = keras.models.model_from_json(model.to_json())
    new_model.summary()

    # copy weights from old model to new one
    for layer in new_model.layers:
        try:
            layer.set_weights(model.get_layer(name=layer.name).get_weights())
        except:
            print("Could not transfer weights for layer {}".format(layer.name))

    # test new model on a random input image
    X = np.random.rand(10, 40, 40, 3)
    y_pred = new_model.predict(X)
    print(y_pred)

    return new_model

if __name__ == '__main__':
    model = get_model()
    new_model = change_model(model)
