python - TypeError: The added layer must be an instance of class Layer. Found: <keras.engine.training.Model object at 0x7fa5bee17ac8>

Question

I am try to train a model using Xception /Inception Model of keras library but I face value error

Dataset which I use it from kaggle commuinity and Notebook which I refer Notebook But I am try to use different Model like Xception /Inception but silmilar idea not work for me

with strategy.scope():
    enet = keras.applications.inception_v3.InceptionV3(
        input_shape=(512, 512, 3),
        weights='imagenet',
        include_top=False
)

model = tf.keras.Sequential([
    enet,
    tf.keras.layers.GlobalAveragePooling2D(),
    tf.keras.layers.Dense(len(CLASSES), activation='softmax')
])

model.compile(
    optimizer=tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(lr=0.0001),
    loss = 'sparse_categorical_crossentropy',
    metrics=['sparse_categorical_accuracy']
)
 model.summary()

Error WHich I Face

Answer 1

You are mixing imports between keras and tf.keras libraries, they are not the same library and this combination is not supported.

You can import tf.keras.applications to get access to InceptionV3.
