Fixing INT8 Quantization Error for Depthwise Conv2D Layers

Hey everyone,

Thanks for the previous suggestions on tackling the inference timeout issue in my vibration anomaly detection project. I implemented quantization to optimize the model, but now I’m encountering a new error:

**Error Message:**

Quantization Error: Unsupported Layer Type in INT8 Conversion - Layer 5 (Depthwise Conv2D)

It seems like the quantization process is failing specifically at Layer 5, which uses a Depthwise Conv2D operation.
What’s the best approach to handle layers that aren’t compatible with INT8 quantization? Should I consider retraining with a different architecture, or is there a workaround to manually adjust these layers?

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Instead of fully quantizing the model to `INT8`, you can use `mixed precision quantization`. This approach leaves unsupported layers like `Depthwise Conv2D` in `float32 FP32` while quantizing the rest of the model to `INT8`

    For `TensorFlow Lite`, you can specify dynamic range quantization for unsupported layers. See how you can adjust your conversion script:
    “`
    converter = tf.lite.TFLiteConverter.from_keras_model(model)
    converter.optimizations = [tf.lite.Optimize.DEFAULT]
    converter.target_spec.supported_ops = [tf.lite.OpsSet.TFLITE_BUILTINS_INT8, # INT8 quantized ops
    tf.lite.OpsSet.TFLITE_BUILTINS] # FP32 fallback for unsupported layers
    converter.inference_input_type = tf.int8 # Input quantized as int8
    converter.inference_output_type = tf.int8 # Output quantized as int8
    tflite_model = converter.convert()

    “`
