Error when checking model input: expected convolution2d_input_1 to have 4 dimensions, but got array with shape (32, 32, 3)

The input shape you have defined is the shape of a single sample. The model itself expects some array of samples as input (even if its an array of length 1).

Your output really should be 4-d, with the 1st dimension to enumerate the samples. i.e. for a single image you should return a shape of (1, 32, 32, 3).

You can find more information here under “Convolution2D”/”Input shape”

Edit: Based on Danny’s comment below, if you want a batch size of 1, you can add the missing dimension using this:

image = np.expand_dims(image, axis=0)
