Hi,

While trying out this code (https://github.com/NeuromorphicProcessorProject/snn_toolbox/blob/master/examples/mnist_keras_spiNNaker_sparse.py) I was getting this error (https://github.com/NeuromorphicProcessorProject/snn_toolbox/issues/132). After getting a response from the maintainer of the repository I tried installing keras_wiring by following the steps mentioned over here (https://devpick.io/project?name=pabogdan/keras_rewiring). But after that I am facing the following issue.

```

Hi Saurav,

Petrut doesn't work on the project any more so it may be a while before he is able to do the fix (I have made a repository fork and sent a request).  The problem is that it should be "statsmodels", not "statsmodel".  If you want to make it work yourself then simply edit the setup.py and requirements.txt files so that they say "statsmodels" instead of "statsmodel" and you should find it now installs correctly.

Thanks Andrew, I was able to solve the issue. But now, I am facing another issue for tensorflow. Should I download the latest tensorflow version ?
If not, how should I proceed ?

Hi Saurav,

Yes, I think you could try the latest tensorflow version - from reading round a bit it looks like the version there (2.2.1) won't work with python 3.9, so it's probably best if you try the latest version instead.

Hi Andrew,

I did install tensorflow's latest version but after installation I faced the following issue for keras. I also tried removig the specific version for keras from setup.py, but after that I was facing some errors in importing the required stuff (which is now a part of keras.layers).

```
Installed /home/saurav/miniconda3/envs/tf/lib/python3.9/site-packages/Keras-2.3.1-py3.9.egg
error: Keras 2.3.1 is installed but keras<2.10.0,>=2.9.0rc0 is required by {'tensorflow'}
```

Hi Saurav,

That error message doesn't help very much.  Have you tried installing a version of keras that does work, and then if there are other imports it says you need, just importing them as well?

Hi Saurav,

If you are having problems with keras then it's best if you ask them about it: https://github.com/keras-team/keras/issues
