NotImplementedError: Make sure `_init_weigths` is implemented (Error on Google Colab)

!git clone https://github.com/lixin4ever/BERT-E2E-ABSA.git

!pip install transformers
!pip install tensorboardX
!python fast_run.py

I'm trying to run your model on colab with the previous steps, but it throws the following error:

how can I solve this?

Hey how did you fix it? @luishsantos

Hey how did you fix it? @luishsantos

%cd BERT-E2E-ABSA
!pip install -r requirements.txt

Instead of:
!pip install transformers
!pip install tensorboardX

This solved my problem! @chesed71

@luishsantos Thank for your quick answer, I already succeeded if i use lower transformer version, this issue didn't happen, but I want to use up to date transformers. so, I was curious how it can be solved. anyway, Thanks !!
