Issues with Tensorflow 2.4 use Tensorflow 2.2

Thanks for creating this new issue. When I downgrade to use TensorFlow 2.2, the program works, but I saw something like this on the console:

Does that mean that savedModel is not up-to-date?

The issue seems to be there because the model might have been trained in Tensorflow 1, but I am not sure. You can ask raise an issue on repository from where the model is taken.

The issue regarding Tensorflow 2.4 also seems with the model so until that repo gets updated we will be stuck.

Would you mind pointing me where savedModel is downloaded from? Is this: https://github.com/davisking/dlib-models? But I didn't see any .pb file there?

Closing with the fix suggested in #34.
