I am getting this error while running VaDE.py in windows. Can you please suggest how to solve the problem?

When I using TensorFlow backend, I got similar error.
Try to change keras backend to theano.

@tansinjahan ,I have the same problem as you,and @isamu I did as he said,change keras backend from TensorFlow to Theano,I dont have this error now,but I have another error!

please help me,thanks lot!

@JasonKwok17 Are you using correct versions?
Python-3.4.4
keras-1.1.0
scikit-learn-1.17.1

When I was using different versions, I got same error. Please comfirm those.

To install those, I used pyenv and pip-sync, then I get valid version environment.
Please check my PR #12

pyenv install 3.4.4
pyenv virtualenv 3.4.4 VaDE
pyenv local VaDE
pip install pip-tools
pip-sync requirements/*.txt

Dear @isamu I had some troubles installing python throguh pyenv:
`ERROR: The Python ssl extension was not compiled. Missing the OpenSSL lib?

Please consult to the Wiki page to fix the problem.
https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/wiki/Common-build-problems
`
I also tried to install python3.4.4, using this instruction but there is a problem with installing packages. because every package I install, it can be imported on python 3.5 (which was on our server initially). do you any other solutions for solving this issue?
Using the above-mentioned version of python and modules, could you use VaDE for your data?
Please consider that I am not root!

@Roabb as https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv/wiki/Common-build-problems, you should like to set CFLAGS and LDFLAGS when you install pyenv.
If your system has not the OpenSSL lib, you should like to OpenSSL lib under your home dir and set CFLAGS and LDFLAGS.
