Error reported when prunning one tf-keras layer

[iamweiweishi]

Prior to filing: check that this should be a bug instead of a feature request. Everything supported, including the compatible versions of TensorFlow, is listed in the overview page of each technique. For example, the overview page of quantization-aware training is here. An issue for anything not supported should be a feature request.

Describe the bug
My model is built on subclasses of Keras Models, so I cannot prune the model directly refered to this.
To get around this, I only prune the tf-keras-layers inside the model like:

  .......
  self.conv_1 = tf.keras.layers.Conv2D(
        filters=..., kernel_size=..., strides=...,
        padding="valid", name="pw_conv_1",
        kernel_regularizer=kernel_regularizer,
        bias_regularizer=bias_regularizer
    )

    from tensorflow_model_optimization.sparsity import keras as sparsity
    pruning_prm = {
        'pruning_schedule': sparsity.PolynomialDecay(initial_sparsity=0, final_sparsity=0.5, begin_step=0,
                                                     end_step=75000, frequency=100)}
    self.conv_1 = sparsity.prune_low_magnitude(self.conv_1, **pruning_prm)
  ......

Then, Error reported:

Even if I added 'tfmot.sparsity.keras.UpdatePruningStep()' into callbacks, the error still remains.

Any update on this subject, I'm getting the same error... Appreciate any help!
