Merge_mode gives Type error

I am implementing a bidrectional LSTM in keras_tensorflow and it give me the Keyword argument error

self.lstm3 = Bidirectional(tf.keras.layers.LSTM(200, return_sequences=False,merge_mode=None,return_state=False))

raise TypeError(error_message, kwarg) TypeError: (‘Keyword argument not understood:’, ‘merge_mode’)

Hi @Saran_Zeb tf.keras.layers.LSTM does not have argument merge_mode. tf.keras.layers.Bidirectional supports merge_mode argument. By replacing Bidirectional(tf.keras.layers.LSTM(200, return_sequences=False,merge_mode=None,return_state=False)) with Bidirectional(tf.keras.layers.LSTM(200, return_sequences=False,return_state=False),merge_mode=None) will not produce the error. Thank you!
