Importing a Pytorch neural network with tanh activation using ONNX does not work.

[caelorza]

Using Tanh as an activation function returns the following error. Using other activation functions such as sigmoid or relu works fine.

Exception: Unhandled node type Tanh

The same error also occurs when using Softplus as the activation function.

I meet the same question. I don't find Tanh in _ACTIVATION_OP_TYPES of onnx_parser.py. Do you have any clue now?

@juan-campos fixed this bug in PR https://github.com/cog-imperial/OMLT/pull/121, which we've now merged. Would you take a look and see if this solves your problem? @juan-campos also added some tests to try to make sure we don't reintroduce this bug!

The problem has been solved. Thanks for wonderful work.
