Why does IBM Watson Machine Learning fail to export TensorFlow models with custom layers?

  • 1.  Why does IBM Watson Machine Learning fail to export TensorFlow models with custom layers?

    Hi everyone,

    I'm using IBM Watson Machine Learning to train TensorFlow models that include custom layers. When I attempt to export these models for deployment, the process fails with errors related to serialization of the custom components. I need to understand why Watson ML cannot handle these layers during export and whether there is a supported way to include custom TensorFlow layers in a model so that it can be successfully exported and deployed. I'm specifically looking for technical details about the serialization process or API limitations.
