attributeerror: 'sequential' object has no attribute "get_build_config"

[areflesh]

This issue appeared after switching from version 1.3.5 to 1.4.2. No code changes were done.

if args.auto_tune:
        print('AUTO TUNING ENABLED')
        def build_model(hp):
            
            model = Sequential()
            model.add(Dense(input_dims+1, input_dim=input_dims, activation='relu'))
            if args.normalize:
                model.add(tf.keras.layers.BatchNormalization())
            for i in range(hp.Int('num_layers', 1,5)):
                model.add(Dense(
                hp.Choice('units', [32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024]),
                activation='relu'))
                model.add(Dropout(args.dropout_rate))
            model.add(Dense(2, activation='softmax'))
            if args.gradient_clipping:
                optimizer = tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(clipnorm=args.gradient_clipping_value)
            else:
                optimizer = 'adam'
            model.compile(loss="kullback_leibler_divergence", optimizer=optimizer,
                    metrics=[
                        tf.keras.metrics.BinaryAccuracy(name='accuracy'),
                        tf.keras.metrics.Precision(name='precision'),

                        tf.keras.metrics.AUC(name='prc', curve='PR'),])
            return model
        if args.objective == 'prc':
            objective = keras_tuner.Objective("prc", direction="max")
        elif args.objective == 'loss':
            objective = keras_tuner.Objective("loss", direction="min")
        else:
            raise ValueError('objective must be either prc or loss')
        tuner = keras_tuner.BayesianOptimization(
            build_model,
            objective=objective,
            max_trials=args.max_trials,
            executions_per_trial=1,
            directory="s3://{}/{}/model/auto_tune".format(args.s3_bucket, args.s3_dir),
            overwrite=True)
        
        tuner.search_space_summary()
        tuner.search(dataset,
                epochs = args.max_epochs_tune,
                verbose = 2,
                class_weight = class_weights)
        print('TUNNING DONE. BEST HYPERPARAMETERS:')
        tuner.results_summary()

        model = tuner.get_best_models(num_models=1)[0]
        model.build()    

Issue appear after each trial and after third trial it says RuntimeError: Number of consecutive failures exceeded the limit of 3 and stops

Hi @areflesh , it is probably because the TF version you use?
We do model.get_build_config() under the hood.
As I tested in colab, Sequential model class has this method.

I have the same error when I use tensorflow version 2.10 which does not have this method

Tensorflow API v2.10 Layer

It has been fixed in master. Will be available in the next release. (1.4.3)
It is much appreciated if anyone had the bug could test it on our master branch. Thanks!
