Hello there,

I am trying to fine-tune the bart model using pre-downloaded “imdb” datasets following the exact same code from the example [Fine-tuning a pretrained model](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/training#finetuning-with-keras)

But, I got the value errors message while I am trying to apply model.fit().

I would greatly appreciate if anyone would have any suggestions or comments on this problem. Please let me know!

My Code:

```auto
from datasets import load_dataset
import datasets
raw_dataset = datasets.load_from_disk('./train')

from transformers import TFAutoModelForSequenceClassification
model = TFAutoModelForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("bert-base-cased", num_labels=2)

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("bert-base-cased")
def tokenize_function(examples):
    return tokenizer(examples["text"], padding="max_length", truncation=True)

tokenized_datasets = raw_dataset.map(tokenize_function, batched=True)
small_train_dataset = tokenized_datasets["train"].shuffle(seed=42).select(range(1000))
small_eval_dataset = tokenized_datasets["test"].shuffle(seed=42).select(range(1000))

tf_train_dataset = small_train_dataset.remove_columns(["text"]).with_format("tensorflow")
tf_eval_dataset = small_eval_dataset.remove_columns(["text"]).with_format("tensorflow")

train_features = {x: tf_train_dataset[x] for x in tokenizer.model_input_names}
eval_features = {x: tf_eval_dataset[x] for x in tokenizer.model_input_names}

train_tf_dataset = tf.data.Dataset.from_tensor_slices((train_features, tf_train_dataset["label"]))
train_tf_dataset = train_tf_dataset.shuffle(len(tf_train_dataset)).batch(8)

eval_tf_dataset = tf.data.Dataset.from_tensor_slices((eval_features, tf_eval_dataset["label"]))
eval_tf_dataset = train_tf_dataset.batch(8)

model.compile(
    optimizer=tf.keras.optimizers.Adam(learning_rate=5e-5),
    loss=tf.keras.losses.SparseCategoricalCrossentropy(from_logits=True),
    metrics=tf.metrics.SparseCategoricalAccuracy(),
)

model.fit(train_tf_dataset, validation_data=eval_tf_dataset, epochs=3)

```

Thank you! But, I am wondering if I did anything wrong with my current code? Why it would raise value error? If you could share any your thoughts, that would be really helpful!
