I keep getting an error ValueError: perm should have the same length as rank(x): 3 != 2 when trying to convert my model using coremltools.

From my understanding the most common case for this is when your input shape that you pass into coremltools doesn’t match your model input shape. However, as far as I can tell in my code it does match. I also added an input layer, and that didn’t help either.

I have put a lot of effort into reducing my code as much as possible while still giving a minimal complete verifiable example. However, I’m aware that the code is still a lot. Starting at line 60 of my code is where I create my model, and train it.

I’m running this on Ubuntu, with NVIDIA setup with Docker.

Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?
