Here is an example of tensorflow GradientTape provided by keras for a typical variotional autoencoder:
The train_step function is implemented inside the model and it is trained with the "model.fit()". The example performs great and no problem at all.
However, for another application, I need to implement the train_step function outside of the model definition. In the beginning, I started with above mentioned example as the target application is also a kind of VAE. Accordingly, I applied some modifications and tried to train the same model structure; please find the whole code in the next; however, I get very weird numbers for the loss values comparing to the original code; even after a couple of iterations it gets nan values for losses. Could you please let me know what's the mistake and why this happens?
Thanks in advance

CodePudding user response：
I think you forgot to normalize your data as shown in the tutorial you are referring to:
(x_train, _), (x_test, _) = keras.datasets.mnist.load_data()
x_train = x_train.astype("float32") / 255
Otherwise, your code seems to be running fine and the loss in not nan. Here is the code for reference:
