Bug Reproduction

Code for reproducing the bug:
`import os

import autokeras as ak
import numpy as np
from pandas import read_csv
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

os.environ["TF_ENABLE_ONEDNN_OPTS"] = "0"

dataframe = read_csv("ML_Prompts.csv", skiprows=0)
dataset = dataframe.values
x = dataset[:, 0:1744]
y = dataset[:, 1744]

x_train, x_temp, y_train, y_temp = train_test_split(x, y, test_size=0.2)
x_val, x_test, y_val, y_test = train_test_split(x_temp, y_temp, test_size=0.5)

x_train = np.expand_dims(x_train, axis=2)

input_node = ak.Input()
output_node = ak.ConvBlock()(input_node)
output_node = ak.SpatialReduction()(input_node) # optional
output_node = ak.ConvBlock()(input_node)
output_node = ak.SpatialReduction()(output_node) # optional
output_node = ak.ClassificationHead(num_classes=8, multi_label=False)(output_node)
model = ak.AutoModel(

Expected Behavior

Setup Details

Include the details about the versions of:

• OS type and version: Windows 11
• Python: 3.12.4
• autokeras: 1.0.20 (I have been unable to upgrade this package due to a different error)
• keras-tuner: 1.4.7
• scikit-learn: 1.5.0
• numpy: 1.26.4
• pandas: 2.2.2
• tensorflow: 2.17.0rc0

Additional context

[Daniel-Alvarenga]

The error you're encountering (ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tensorflow.keras.layers.experimental') suggests that the version of TensorFlow you are using doesn't have the tensorflow.keras.layers.experimental module. This module has been deprecated in the latest versions of TensorFlow.

To resolve this, you can try this:

Check TensorFlow and AutoKeras Compatibility

First, ensure that your versions of TensorFlow and AutoKeras are compatible. AutoKeras 1.0.20 might not be fully compatible with TensorFlow 2.17.0rc0. You can check the compatibility matrix on the AutoKeras documentation or GitHub repository.

Update or Downgrade TensorFlow

You may need to downgrade TensorFlow to a version compatible with AutoKeras 1.0.20. For example, TensorFlow 2.4.1 is known to be compatible with AutoKeras 1.0.20. You can downgrade TensorFlow using pip:

pip install tensorflow==2.4.1

Install the Latest AutoKeras

If downgrading TensorFlow is not an option, you may need to upgrade AutoKeras. However, since you mentioned an error while upgrading AutoKeras, we'll address that next.

Resolve AutoKeras Upgrade Issue

Try upgrading AutoKeras to the latest version using pip:

pip install --upgrade autokeras

If you encounter errors during the upgrade, you can try uninstalling and then reinstalling it:

pip uninstall autokeras
pip install autokeras

I can't get autokeras 2.0 because of this:
The conflict is caused by:
keras-nlp 0.14.0 depends on tensorflow-text; platform_system != "Darwin"
keras-nlp 0.12.1 depends on tensorflow-text; platform_system != "Darwin"
keras-nlp 0.12.0 depends on tensorflow-text; platform_system != "Darwin"
keras-nlp 0.11.1 depends on tensorflow-text; platform_system != "Darwin"

keras-nlp 0.9.2 depends on tensorflow-text; platform_system != "Darwin"
keras-nlp 0.9.1 depends on tensorflow-text; platform_system != "Darwin"
keras-nlp 0.9.0 depends on tensorflow-text; platform_system != "Darwin"

keras-nlp 0.8.0 depends on tensorflow-text; platform_system != "Darwin"

[j2322]

We also received the conflict errors with tensorflow-text. It looks like tensorflow-text is not currently available in pip for Python 3.12. We resolved this by using Python 3.10. The package info also states it has support for 3.9 or 3.11, so those should work as well. After we were able to install and use Autokeras 2.0.0 with Tensorflow 2.17

[khaso-ai]

thank you for the update autokeras i had been stuck on this for ages love !

[timwm]

Yep @j2322 that's right. You'll better check that the python version your using is compatible with the packages you've installed, that's just a dependency problem. As of writing tensorflow has been tested upto python 3.11.
You'd probably use conda, pip, etc.
