Root Cause

Mixing Keras Sequential and Functional API incorrectly.

generic

Workarounds

  1. 90% success Use Functional API for complex architectures: inputs/outputs pattern
  2. 88% success Use Sequential only for simple linear stacks of layers

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. Wrap everything in Sequential 75% fail

    Loses multi-input/output capability

  2. Convert all to Subclassing 72% fail

    Loses model serialization benefits
