I am training tensor flow object detection following the tensor flow API. I have trained many models in the past using the exact same steps. This model however keeps giving me the error message below. The error message references
InvalidArgumentError: image_size must contain 3 elements[4]
I searched the error and found
InvalidArgumentError: image_size must contain 3 elements[4] #3349
which shows the error and gives the solution of checking to make sure that all images are RGB. I used the code provided in that thread to check all images. I found about 15 images that were not RGB. I removed the images and the corresponding xml files. I recompiled the csv files and the tfrecord files and restarted the training. I received the error message again. I then tried to start the training over without resuming from the last checkpoint and I still received the error. The error does not happen on a regular basis. Sometimes the model will go for several thousand steps before a failure. I have also tried removing the random crop parameter from the pipeline.config file which had no affect.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
