keras - adding LeakyrRelu on seqauential model throws error

Question

second_fashion_model.add(LeakyReLU(alpha=0.05))

throws error as:

The added layer must be an instance of class Layer. Found:

Answer 1

Make sure that:

1. You are using the latest version of Keras
2. That you are using Keras layers and not Tensorflow.keras layers (per here)

Example:

from keras.layers import LeakyReLU
model = Sequential()
model.add(Dense(90))
model.add(LeakyReLU(alpha=0.03))
