Tensorflow error while running segmentation

Question

I am using a Jetson Xavier NX to run segmentation as created by [Segmentation][1]. These are the versions of the libraries I am using tensorflow - 1.15.4 keras - 2.1.5 python - 3.6.9

However when i run my program, I am getting the following error

2021-06-14 20:30:53.671609: W tensorflow/core/framework/op_kernel.cc:1651] OP_REQUIRES failed at random_op.cc:76 : Resource exhausted: OOM when allocating tensor with shape[3,3,128,128] and type float on /job:localhost/replica:0/task:0/device:GPU:0 by allocator GPU_0_bfc

This is my code

import cv2
# Load a random image from the images folder
file_names = next(os.walk(IMAGE_DIR))[2]
image = skimage.io.imread("/sample_images/sample3.jpg")

# Run detection
results = model.detect([image], verbose=1)

# Visualize results
r = results[0]
visualize.display_instances(image, r['rois'], r['masks'], r['class_ids'], 
                            class_names, r['scores'])
cv2.imwrite("hi.jpg",image)

I have run the same program on aws ec2. THe only difference was the tensorflow version (I used 1.8.0 gpu) there and it was working fine. Is the error caused by the tensorflow version?

EDIT I have added this into the beginning of my code as shown in some github issue

import tensorflow as tf
config = tf.ConfigProto()
config.gpu_options.allow_growth = True
sess = tf.Session(config=config)

I am still getting a warning and not getting out put

If you see this message frequently, you are running near the threshold of the available device memory and re-allocation may incur great performance overhead. You may try smaller batch sizes to observe the performance impact. Set TF_ENABLE_GPU_GARBAGE_COLLECTION=false if you'd like to disable this feature.

How I check if my gpu is alloted properly or not? [1]: https://github.com/matterport/Mask_RCNN
