Keras Convolution2D Input: Error when checking model input: expected convolution2d_input_1 to have shape
<p>I am working through <a href="https://blog.keras.io/building-powerful-image-classification-models-using-very-little-data.html" rel="nofollow">this great tutorial</a> on creating an image classifier using Keras.  Once I have trained the model, I save it to a file and then later reload it into a model in a test script shown below.</p>

<p>I get the following exception when I evaluate the model using a new, never-before-seen image:</p>

<p>Error:</p>

<pre><code>Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test_classifier.py", line 48, in &lt;module&gt;

Exception: Error when checking model input: expected convolution2d_input_1 to have shape (None, 3, 150, 150) but got array with shape (1, 3, 150, 198)`
</code></pre>

<p>Is the problem with the model that I have trained or with how I am invoking the evaluate method?</p>

<p>Code:</p>

<pre><code>    from keras.preprocessing.image import ImageDataGenerator
    from keras.models import Sequential
    from keras.layers import Convolution2D, MaxPooling2D
    from keras.layers import Activation, Dropout, Flatten, Dense
    from keras.preprocessing.image import ImageDataGenerator, array_to_img, img_to_array, load_img

    import numpy as np
    img_width, img_height = 150, 150
    train_data_dir = 'data/train'
    validation_data_dir = 'data/validation'
    nb_train_samples = 2000
    nb_validation_samples = 800
    nb_epoch = 5
    model = Sequential()
    model.add(Convolution2D(32, 3, 3, input_shape=(3, img_width, img_height)))
    model.add(Activation('relu'))
    model.add(MaxPooling2D(pool_size=(2, 2)))
    model.add(Convolution2D(32, 3, 3))
    model.add(Activation('relu'))
    model.add(MaxPooling2D(pool_size=(2, 2)))
    model.add(Convolution2D(64, 3, 3))
    model.add(Activation('relu'))
    model.add(MaxPooling2D(pool_size=(2, 2)))
    model.add(Flatten())
    model.add(Dense(64))
    model.add(Activation('relu'))
    model.add(Dropout(0.5))
    model.add(Dense(1))
    model.add(Activation('sigmoid'))
    model.compile(loss='binary_crossentropy',
          optimizer='rmsprop',
          metrics=['accuracy'])
    model.load_weights('first_try.h5')
    img = load_img('data/test2/ferrari.jpeg')
    x = img_to_array(img)  # this is a Numpy array with shape (3, 150, 150)
    x = x.reshape( (1,) + x.shape )  # this is a Numpy array with shape (1, 3, 150, 150)
    y = np.array([0])
    score = model.evaluate(x, y, batch_size=16)`
</code></pre>

<p>The issue was two-fold:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>The test image was the wrong size.  It was 150 x 198, and needed to be 150 x 150.</p></li>
<li><p>I had to change the dense layer from <code>model.add(Dense(10))</code> to <code>model.add(Dense(1))</code>.</p></li>
</ol>

<p>I don't yet understand how to get the model to give me the prediction, but at least now, the model evaluation runs.</p>
